Biblical verses on bulletin boards nixed (August 16, 2018)

FFRF brought two bulletin boards containing religious verses to the attention of a Tennessee school district which have been subsequently taken down.

Midtown Elementary School in Kingston, Tenn., had displayed two bible verses in one of its hallways. One display said “A cord of three strands is not easily broken. Ecc. 4:12.” The other said, “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might. Ecc. 9:10.”

The superintendent quickly responded to FFRF Legal Fellow Chris Line’s letter that the bulletin boards would be swiftly removed.
