No. There is no case where banning of books by a government institution is acceptable.
However, if this christian school is a private institution (i.e. no public money) then they have a right to dictate what goes into their libraries. This is not the same as banning a book as the book in question can still be purchased with very little difficulty anywhere else.
That said, I can't believe anyone would get so worked up about Harry Potter. There are way to many things that matter in this world than to get bent out of shape over what is essentially the story of a good kid (a classic underdog that has to fight every step of the way even) that fights evil.
Some organizations have no sense of perspective.
