Christian Law Group Sues School Over Anti-Abortion Fliers

[-] Text [+]

CRESSON, Pa. (AP) - A national Christian legal group has sued a school district and high school principal over a student's attempt to distribute anti-abortion materials.

The student obtained permission from the assistant principal to distribute the fliers at school, only to have the principal reverse the decision, according to the suit filed Thursday by the Alliance Defense Fund of Scottsdale, Ariz.

Penn Cambria High School Principal Kathy Nagle instead told students that requests to distribute literature required her approval two weeks in advance.

The suit was filed in federal court in Pittsburgh on behalf of the unidentified student and her mother, Theresa Shaffer.

Neither Nagle nor Shaffer could not be reached for comment.
