An Oklahoma board approved the nation’s first religious charter school, agreeing to publicly fund a school where Catholic teachings will be incorporated into daily lessons — and testing the constitutional bounds of taxpayer funding for religious education.
The new online school, called St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School, will be run by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and the Diocese of Tulsa. It plans to enroll students in grades K-12 in fall 2024. Religion will be woven into every subject from math and science to history and literature.
Almost immediately, the advocacy group Americans United for Separation of Church and State said it would challenge the decision in court.
