Abstract
- The article discusses a legal battle over the establishment of a religious charter school in Oklahoma, which would be the first of its kind in the United States. Supporters argue that state laws barring such schools are discriminatory and violate recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings. However, some charter school advocates believe that religious charter schools contradict the secular nature of charter schools. The issue could potentially impact school choice, public funding for religious instruction, and the broader charter school movement. The Oklahoma Supreme Court is expected to make a decision on the matter, which could potentially be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. [Extracted from the article]
