Have To History: A Wall Of Education: What the Supreme Court Really Says (and What It Really Doesn't) About the Separation of Church an - Paperback

by Dallas Koehn (Author)

Are students allowed to pray in school? How about at graduation? Football games? At home while working on their homework? Can a teacher be fired for talking about religion in class? Has God been "banned" from public schools - and if so, what kind of security is necessary to make sure He doesn't sneak in through the auxiliary gym or something? Is "school choice" really about improving education for everyone, or maintaining castes society claims to have rejected? Do schools have to allow Satanist Club to meet on campus if they let the Chess Team practice after hours? And where did we finally land on that whole "evolution" thing? "Have To" History: A Wall of Education is your guide to answering at least half of these questions with some modicum of reliability. By walking you through nearly a century of Supreme Court thinking, declaring, and mind-changing, H2H presents in plain, simple English pretty much every case of importance addressing church-state separation in public education. Accessible summaries offer historical context and pithy insights so you can go as deep or broad as you like. Read it for personal growth and inspiration, to sound smarter arguing with strangers online, or as a road map for navigating the intricacies of being a real person working in or attending an educational institution. "Have To" History: A Wall of Education is readable and fresh and will make you feel much smarter than you thought possible about some legitimately complex issues still sparking major kerfuffles today.
