Two Beddingfield High School students were removed from their English class by their parents last week after they brought home lessons studying the Islamic religious text the Quran.

The text was referenced in a world culture lesson being taught in Lynn Joyner’s 10th-grade English class.

Over the course of the lesson, students learn about elements of Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, polytheism and Islam.

If it's an objective, balanced study, I don't have a problem with it.  Not sure why it would be in an English class though.
