"We recognize that this decision may come as a disappointment to you and your family. All of our admissions decisions are made through a thorough committee review process. As a result, all decisions are final." MCC did not respond to multiple requests by CBC News for information or interviews over the past month.The parents received letters from Palliser on Aug. 5 indicating that after discussions with MCC, the students would be allowed back to the school.
"That means they have a predetermined decision already that they're not going to allow me for the years after, no matter what we do," said Mohammad.
Is this a private school? Or is it a charter somehow?
Actually, the real issue is that they did not go public. Public education, that is.
Why are religious schools even allowed and paid for by tax payer money? I hate that I pay for this bull shit self segregation. You want religious indoctrination pay for private schools, no matter your religion.
