NAE Defends Students’ Religious Freedom |
|
The NAE filed a co-amici in the Morgan et al. v. Plano Independent School District case involving a public school’s suppression of student written speech of religious content. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the school district may ban virtually all non-verbal student speech in any school-related context. The earlier rule was that only speech disruptive of the educational environment of the school could be banned. The NAE joined the Cato Institute and the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty in urging the Supreme Court to take up the case. If the Supreme Court fails to overturn the case, schools will be free to ban students from distributing any written materials even when not disruptive, including religious messages of any kind.
