“Learning what I am allowed to do and not allowed to do really made things much more clear for me. I am more free to pray with other Christian teachers when students are not around and to even suggest a Bible Study after school hours. Knowing that I can teach Christianity in the context of history has also given me inspiration to include the importance of Christian thought in the history we study.”
