Separation of Church and State
Why is it so confusing?
“Why do so many parents, students, and even principals
get this wrong?
Because they confuse the rights of students with the restrictions on teachers and staff.
✅ Teachers and staff CAN violate the Establishment Clause.
That’s why they must stay neutral; they can’t lead prayer or promote a religion in their official roles.
✅ Students CANNOT violate the Establishment Clause; only the government can.
“In Good News Club v. Milford Central School, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that public schools must allow student-led religious clubs if they allow other extracurricular groups.
Why? Because blocking them would discriminate based on religious viewpoint; violating students’ Free Speech rights.”
When? This dates back to 2001 and is still the precedent case.

“The phrase doesn’t appear in the Constitution.
Thomas Jefferson wrote it in an 1802 private letter to Baptists to promise freedom from government interference, not to erase faith from public life.
Two days later, Jefferson worshiped in the U.S. Capitol!
Today, schools often misuse this idea to shut down student faith — but the courts keep protecting it.”
Parents, students, or staff — if you see this, you may need to speak up:
✅ Faith-based clubs treated worse than other clubs.
✅ A teacher telling a student not to read a Bible during free time.
✅ Flyers for student-led Christian events not allowed while other clubs get posters.
✅ principal, turning down the request for a lunch huddle because of a fear of atheists.
