The Supreme Court is set to review whether Oklahoma can open the nation’s first publicly funded religious charter school, following a state court ruling against it.
The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled that a taxpayer-funded religious charter school would violate the First Amendment's Establishment Clause.
The case has attracted attention from various groups, with some arguing it infringes on religious freedom while others see it as a potential threat to public education.
Arguments in the case are expected to be heard in late April, with a decision likely by early summer.
