By signing this Petition you are saying that I endorse this action, and think that it is a positive way to spread realization of how many Pagans are in our schools, and a way to stand in solidarity against RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION against Pagans.
By the way if you are signing this petition you should remember that Sky Holeman of the Hanover High School was suspended for wearing her pentacle on her face on Beltaine after having her pentacle forcibly removed by other students and confiscated by faculty. So wear yours on your face to mark the fact that you cannot just take away who we are just by taking our pentacle.

| Number | Date | Prefix | Name | Whats your Pagan Path? | Why do you wear a Pentacle? | Picture | Report |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 177 | 12:29 pm PST, Jan 29 | Anonymous | Wicca | I wear the pentacle because it is my religious symbol. Even though my school want's me not to wear my pentacle I still do because if Cristian's can wear their cross I have every right to wear my pentacle, they should not discriminate young witch's and he-witch's just because they do not like our religion. |  |

Wear a Pentacle Day
On September 22nd, Mabon,
Wear a big Pentacle to school, something obvious, public school, private school, or college.
Stand in solidarity with Pagans around the country to fight Religious discrimination against Pagans in the land of Freedom of Religion!
When people ask you why you are wearing it tell them you are Pagan and it is the correct religious symbol for your religion.
If you are bothered by anyone in authority tell them that the Department of Education said that they can not inhibit the free expression of your religion! And what they are doing right now is called Discrimination. And are asking to be suied if you have to take it off!
If every Pagan did this on the same day, we'd never have a problem with Religious Discrimination again.
Fight Discrimination wear a large pentacle on September 22nd, and tell them that you are not afraid to let them know you are a broomstick riding witch, a Mead drinking Odinist, a barefoot Druid, a stoned dancing Shaman, and they are going to have to accept you!
Sign this petition, and wear your Pentacle to school on September 22nd and STAND UP AND BE COUNTED!
