A wiser teacher who simply HAD to drive this lesson home would simply use a test from a more distant culture, and not one that is so, ahem, "sensitive" (read: programmed to take offense at ANY and ALL times)... maybe from India or Iceland or New Zealand.

3. 'Natya - Shastra' the main source of India's classical dances was written by

4. 'Dandia' is a popular dance of

Same effect: a bunch of very smart kids can feel very dumb when asked to show skills and knowledge in a culture they are unfamiliar with. No need for getting Jesse and Al's panties in a bunch.

If I read it right then the superintendent met with a group of people and then prayed. Why is everyone protesting the test and not the prayer. After all, liberal groups always claim a separation of church and state.
