Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders met Monday with heads of Christian schools around the state for a brief question-and-answer session.
The event, hosted by the Missouri-based Herzog Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to promoting "the development of quality Christ-centered K-12 education," gave the heads of a few dozen Christian schools around the state an opportunity to ask the first-term governor about the LEARNS Act, her signature education overhaul that she signed into law in March.
Brad Jones, superintendent of Fayetteville Christian School, said his school qualified for the Nation School Lunch Program, which required posting an Equal Opportunity Employment poster saying the school does not discriminate against someone's sexual orientation when hiring.
"And we were like 'whoa,' you know of course we discriminate on that as a Christian school," he said.
