For better or worse, it's been ruled unconstitutional. They won't be displayed in public school classrooms unless appealed and overturned.

Just what we wanted, right!?

Not really sure how I feel about this. I’ve always been one that believed family came first, parents were primary, and religion was best left to be taught by the parents and their belief group.

On the other hand, the moral lessons are sorely needed among our youth, and just seeing them—without even discussing formally—may give some pause to think more about how they treat others.

Similar to cell phones being taken away is making them have actual face-to-face interactions. Also a good thing to me.

I know at the La Porte town pep rally at the new stadium tonight, the School Board President led the entire crowd (probably 5.000 or so) in a prayer before the festivities. Everyone—even the smaller kids—were at least respectful and quiet. Even if they didn’t pray along. So, some schools still do keep those traditions alive.

You're not sure how you feel about the First Amendment? 

Moral lessons are needed among the adults running this state, country, and the bigots that post here daily.

The traditions have mostly been ruled unconstitutional.

 The Supreme Court doesn’t set statutory laws however. They can’t fine or jail a person for violating the Constitution. That is left to state and federal district judges or juries who can assess penalties in a lawsuit.

What that means is, until someone files in lawsuit, there is no harm. As soon as someone does then there might be a temporary restraining order soon, followed by an injunction, pending the outcome.

So when someone finally files with the court and the judge issues that restraining order or injunction and when he starts assessing a $1000 a day contempt of court fine to the school district if they continue, they will have to reevaluate their decision.
