Mooresville,Indiana — The Weekday Religious Education class that sparked a lawsuit against the Mooresville school system has been permanently moved off school property.
A Mooresville mother, in conjunction with the American Civil Liberties Union, brought a lawsuit against the MCSC on Oct. 11 for letting students at Neil Armstrong Elementary School attend a religious education program ON SCHOOL PROPERTY DURING school hours.
Third- and fourth-grade students are allowed to leave the classroom for about an hour once a week to receive Bible education.
“It was determined ,as explained by the school system attorney, that COULD NOT BE LEGALLY DONE on the school grounds to teach Weekday Religious Education,”
Further,The school cannot prohibit students who stay behind from doing their homework while waiting for Bible class students to return.
To me this seems to be a "No Brainer". Religious education belongs in houses of worship and the home, not forced into public schools. ??
