Sounds like a case of ignorance. She ultimately apologized.

I can’t believe the teacher said she didn’t know the first amendment. Not surprising though, people seem to think that not being offended is part of it.

But why wouldn't she listen to him? At 4th grade I'm sure he could explain it's a Catholic thing. How rare could Catholics be?

It seems that way. She apologized and sent candy. Seems like it might have been sincere based on her lack of knowledge. That comment section though... Wow. People calling for her resignation and pension taken away....seems a bit extreme.

This. That's the most alarming part of all this ignorance.
