From the Dallas Star-Telegram:

BEDFORD — Olivia Harrison’s pink Hello Kitty backpack and matching lunchbox were ready for her first day at St. Vincent’s School. And all summer, when her family drove past the campus, the 4-year-old was told that she would be starting pre-kindergarten there in August.

But on Monday, Olivia was not among the youngsters starting school at the campus. Administrators at the private Christian school denied her admission because her parents are lesbians…

“The only responsible thing was to say this is not a good fit,” Foster said. “We were trying to protect Olivia, protect the other children from being exposed to the culture wars and stand up for our theological position…”

Although the sign outside St. Vincent's School identifies itself as Episcopal, the clergy left the national Episcopal Church in 2007 and is now affiliated with the Anglican Church in North America, Foster said. The church was among several that left the Episcopal Church over issues including the ordination of women and support for same-sex unions.
