Just a thought:

Since most religions consider sex outside of marriage to be against the doctrines of their faith, could a lawsuit be filed on 'Church and State' grounds? By that I would argue that the school is specifically countering religious beliefs, on sex outside of marriage, to such an extent (via dispensing birth control) that they are in fact promoting action which is offensive to the Church?

I know it is weak, but people a lot smarter then I am, might be able to use this as a basis to file a lawsuit, gain adverse publicity against Santa Rosa SD, and make them back down. The only analogy I can think of would be something like free ham sandwiches to all students at lunch. Ham is offensive to some, so this would not be done.

Could this illogic be extended to this?

Another way to go is "consent laws". I just read that the age of consent in CA is 18. That includes between adults and minors and between two minors.

The question is: Why isn't a case made that schools are helping children to break that law?
