Middle School Bible Giveaway in Lubbock Needs to Stop
This morning there was a bible giveaway in front of Atkins Middle School.
Please think about this. Do you feel like it s someone else s job to tell your kids how to worship? Really, really think about that. If you have a religious preference, you probably have a certain way that you think those materials should be presented. Giving minors bibles or anything without parental permission is not okay.
Strangers Giving Bibles to Children at School
Now, let s get to the nitty-gritty here.
I was first born-again when I was a minor and my parents were nowhere around. Two strangers changed the way I thought for 35 years with zero input from my parents. That s not okay. You wouldn t let a stranger give your kid a sucker, and you shouldn t let them give your kid a bible either. Allowing strangers to approach kids for any reason is dangerous.
Spring Break returns to Texas; A look at school plans and traffic enforcement for the week
A-J Media and Texas Tribune reports
Spring break kicks off this weekend for many students across the state, with some familiar features along with the all-too-familiar COVID-19 precautions.
As usual, the Texas Department of Public Safety is stepping up enforcement efforts as traffic picks up for spring break, even as Texas Tech and other major universities have scaled back their traditional mid-semester breaks.
And while spring break may look different for many universities, many area school districts are still planning to take the upcoming week off to give students a break. But to help students get through that time away from their regular school meals, Lubbock and Frenship ISD announced free meal distribution events through the week.
