How can public schools discriminate for religion?

Home More advice Religion, Spirituality & Folklore

So, I have this group that I sorta hang out with at school and one of my friends sisters is wiccan. People were mocking it so she started to kinda explain what she believed and the principal actually BANNED her from saying anything about wicca at school bcoz its "inappropriate". Well who is he to say what religion is right or wrong?? im christian but I respect other religions and think everyone can believe what they want!!!It is in no way a catholic/christian school its simply a PUBLIC school!!! and besides that they hang christian youth group posters all the time because its an "appropriate religion"!!! well we went to talk to him and he LAUGHED at us!! I mean, didnt take us seriously at ALL!!! well me and my friends are taking this quite seriously because we think its absolutely wrong!!! I mean, someones personal beliefs shouldnt be mocked or discouraged!! shouldnt we promote diversity and tolerance??? what about being an individual?? why just because of the principal, super intendant, etc believe in the christian religion or dont know ANYTHING about the other ones should they be concidered wrong??? Its a free country , shouldnt we have a free school where they dont try to control the way we think???
