NC Public Schools vs. Uninformed Parent Wise, Hobbs, and Hall; paralegals with Roukabell Law Firm, have taken on a rather unconventional case. The three young paralegals are defending Coats-Erwin Middle School teacher Mrs. Reyes in her decision to inform her students about the holiday of Diwali. Although some parents are do not see the relevance of this information, it has been proven that the holiday does align with the North Carolina Social Studies Essential Standards. It is our goal, as her defense, to encourage the widening of the scope of culture in Harnett County, NC through Mrs. Reyes' sixth grade students. We are not just defending the right to inform students of the Indian traditions of Diwali, but of all traditions and holidays around the world.
