She's not causing any controversy. It's the misinformed and/or ill-intentioned school officials who are causing the controversy.

They'd be far happier in France or Germany, which ban religious symbols in public places, regardless of whether they are public or private displays. In France and Germany, school children in public schools can't even wear a necklace with a small cross on it. And a teacher shouldn't even dream of it.

Correction: I don't think Germany has any such law and the French law forbids large super sized crosses like say a rap performer wears. Small personal crosses are allowed in public schools in France.

Sorry. I guess I wasn't paying close enough attention. Apparently I should be asleep already.
