Extra-credit science assignment on creationism a no-no for Wake County school system

A Wake County middle school teacher did a no-no when he handed out this extra-credit assignment which gave students the option to write about creationism.

As noted in today's article, Wakefield Middle School science teacher Adam Dembrow gave his eighth-grade students an extra-credit opportunity last month to do a poster and paper either on “your interpretation of a religions (sic) Creation” or on “any evidence on the theory of evolution, which can be used to support the theory of evolution.”

Dembrow suggested three websites that students could go to: Answers in Genesis, the Creation Research Society and the Institute for Creation Research.
