BREAKING NEWS: WHDH-TV in Boston is reporting that the attorney for a parent whose child was part of the now notorious Islamic Society of Boston mega-mosque field trip last May is considering a class action lawsuit.
According to the first reports, the lawyer is threatening to file the class action suit against the Wellesley School District for taking students to a mosque last May, where a mother recorded footage of sixth-grade boys taking part in a prayer service. The field trip was to the Islamic Society of Boston Community Center in the Roxbury section of Boston.
According to the Boston Globe, the parent's lawyer may sue unless administrators agree to not offer any other field trips to places of worship, which the lawyer says violates students' First Amendment rights.

Before the prayers commenced, the field trip attendees were religiously segregated. As seen on the video, the parent describes that the women chaperones, female teachers and schoolgirls were asked to leave the prayer area, while the boys were invited to stay and participate in prayer with the men.Such religious and gender discrimination arguably violates Title IX and Massachusetts state education codes, as reflected in the Wellesley Public School anti-discrimination policy.
