US Supreme Court To Consider Constitutionality Of Publicly Funded Religious School

The US Supreme Court will hear two cases regarding the funding of religious public schools, potentially changing the relationship between church and state in public education.

If the Supreme Court rules in favor of funding religious charter schools, it may lead to states being required to support such institutions, fundamentally altering public education.
