"The California Supreme Court has ruled in 2009 that private schools are not obligated to follow California’s civil rights laws."

You have to stand for something. If they don't like the rules set up, then put the child in public school where much of anything goes.

Did the girl attend the church as well?

A public school will kick a student out if s/he attempt to pray in school, yet see no problem when two boys or two girls hold hands and kiss in the lunch room or library. Oh, they might be caught, and have to serve some time after school, but it's just a slap on the wrist. That girl should have kept that info to herself. Now, she's marked as "the bisexual". Congrats, girl. Yet another reason why I don't participate on Facebook. Blech!

You don't participate in Facebook because you feel that you should keep your "sexuality" a secret?

Is your sexuality a "secret"?

Are you attracted to both men and women, Pel?

Are you here to defend something as repugnant as homosexuality, Pel?

So she "kissed a girl", but did she "like it"?

Unknown. Obviously, her parent(s) thought that her attending a school called "Calvary Christian School" was a good idea for some reason. Yet, the mother expresses "shock" over the expulsion and calls it "discrimination."

Why would a woman send her daughter to such a school if they (apparently) knew that it conflicted with their ideas about "lifestyle choices?" I'm just speculating here, but could this have been an attempt to set up the school for a lawsuit? The mom appears to be more concerned about her daughter being expelled over a Facebook claim to bisexuality than she is about her daughter's self described behavior and reputation.
