Greenville County Schools Response to American Humanist Filing
- Details
- By Press Release
A memo was filed August 9th, 2018 by the American Humanist Association asking the court to enjoin Greenville County Schools from using prayers in graduation ceremonies.
Greenville County Schools is committed to affording all students the rights of religious freedom guaranteed in the Constitution. The Court previously upheld our position on the handling of religious matters and we are confident that our district’s policies and practices do not promote religion, but continue to be inclusive of all our families’ religious beliefs, or lack of beliefs. Despite the plaintiff’s most recent filing, we believe the complete record and body of evidence before the court will justify our confidence in this matter.
