A Palo Alto high school’s social justice program is under fire after a lawsuit claims students were pressured into Islamic practices during a mosque field trip — including wearing religious attire, receiving the Quran, and memorizing verses — allegedly violating the separation of church and state.

The district denies wrongdoing but won’t comment further amid ongoing litigation, as more families may join the case and key legal notices are expected soon.
