Supreme Court's conservatives lean toward allowing country's first religious public charter school

  • On April 30, 2025, the Supreme Court heard arguments on whether to allow Oklahoma's first taxpayer-funded religious online charter school, St. Isidore of Seville.
  • The case arises from the Oklahoma Supreme Court ruling that the school's public funding violates the First Amendment by entangling church and state.
  • St. Isidore planned to enroll 200 K-12 students and aims to evangelize Catholic faith, supported by conservative justices and state leaders, with one justice undecided.
  • Justice Brett Kavanaugh said they seek only equal treatment, not special favor, while lawyer Greg Garre warned the ruling will dramatically affect charter schools nationwide.
  • If Chief Justice Roberts sides with conservatives, the school will open nationwide implications; a tie would uphold the state ruling and leave the issue unresolved nationally.
