The preschool is open to children of all faiths and backgrounds and has enrolled families who do not share the school’s religious beliefs. School employees must agree to abide by a “Lifestyle Statement,” which requires every employee to be a “‘born-again’ Christian” and to adhere to certain lifestyle requirements, including abstaining from any sexual activity outside of biblical marriage, the lawsuit states. The school’s handbook says it integrates and follows its Christian beliefs throughout its operations, including in its employment practices and how it operates its facilities. The academy wants to only hire employees who share its religious beliefs about sexuality and gender, “including those that relate to restroom usage, pronouns, dress codes, and student housing during school expeditions and field trips,” according to the lawsuit. It also has daily prayer time, offers Bible classes and holds weekly chapel services for employees and students. The school is one of only a few Christian schools in Chaffee County and the lawsuit states it’s the only Christian school in the central Rockies that incorporates expeditionary learning that includes out-of-classroom adventures. School says sexuality, gender, restroom usage, pronouns and dress codes at issue It claims the government is forcing the school to surrender its religious character, beliefs and ability to participate in UPK “just like everyone else.” The state couldn’t comment on pending litigation.
The federal civil rights lawsuit was filed in June by the Alliance Defending Freedom based in Arizona.
