Boston-area school board blocked church’s private school due to Christian beliefs, lawyers claim
(Worthy News) – A Boston-area school board denied a Hispanic church’s application to open a private school because of animus against the church’s religious beliefs, lawyers claim, and the church is threatening to sue the school board if it continues to deny the application.
First Liberty Institute and the Massachusetts Family Institute sent a letter Thursday urging Somerville Superintendent Mary Skipper and the Somerville Public School Committee to allow Vida Real Church, a largely Hispanic immigrant church in the Boston-area suburb, to open a religious private school called the Real Life Learning Center (RLLC). The church first sought permission to open the school in Sept. 2021, but the school committee blocked it, and members expressed opposition to the church’s beliefs, particularly on creation and sexuality issues.
