Board Rescinds Contract with Catholic Charter School

Following weeks of delays, the Statewide Charter School Board on Monday rescinded its contract with a Catholic online school to comply with an order by the Oklahoma Supreme Court.

The board voted 8-0 to rescind the contract, which authorized oversight and public funding of St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School. Board member Ben Lepak was absent, and a designee attended on behalf of Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters.

The attempt to publicly fund a religious school is dead for this year, but the original Kansas Supreme Court decision may still be appealed to the USSC, so it’s not ‘stake through the heart dead’ yet.

As the ACLU summarized:

Last year, St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School applied to the Oklahoma Virtual Charter School Board to become a public charter school. The school, which would have been managed by the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City, proclaimed in its application that it would carry out “the evangelizing mission of the [Catholic] Church” by fully embracing its religious teachings and incorporating those teachings “into every aspect of the School.” The school also acknowledged that it would discriminate in admissions, student discipline, and employment, as necessary to satisfy the Catholic Church’s religious doctrine, and that it would not accommodate a student’s disability if doing so would violate the school’s Catholic beliefs.

The KSC vote was 6-2.

It's too bad the satanists don't have schools. There were successful in making their point with the statues of Baphomet. They could sue to have their schools funded publicly. It would be very amusing to see officials justify funding xian schools, but not theirs.

Maybe madrassases. Those are non-xian schools. Watch the xians tear their hair out...

Bible belt states need some significant discrimination lawsuits from alt-charter schools.

Is the OK Statewide Charter School Board already funding other religious cults?
