'Parents of a first-grade student have filed a federal lawsuit alleging a local school district violated their son’s freedom of speech when it prohibited him from distributing a story about Jesus to his classmates before Christmas.

According to the lawsuit, Merced Elementary student Isaiah Martinez attempted to give his classmates candy canes with a message attached containing the so-called legend of the candy cane....'

'When Isaiah’s teacher noticed the religious message, she wouldn’t let him give it out, telling him, “Jesus is not allowed in school,” according to the lawsuit.'
