Zuhur Abukar, 12, held a sign up indicating her bus was going to the Apple Valley area after school Monday at Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy in Inver Grove Heights. The Department of Education said today that the school must take "corrective actions" to address concerns about how it handles Muslim prayer in school and after-school religious instruction. Buses run late at the school to allow for after school activities including a religous studies program run by the Muslim American Society, which more than half the students participate in.
