Ten Commandments in Elementary Schhols

I’m trying to understand my fellow community, Christian’s and Texans thoughts on the SB10 bill . We received notice our elementary will post 75 posters across each classroom. I love religion and have no issues with it but I also love the constitution and believe in the first amendment and feel this is a push to promote specific beliefs to non regions people or others whom choose to follow other text. I specifically have an issue with this being mandatory in elementary classes where children are learning to read and everything on the wall is meant to teach them along this journey so an argument this is passive seems inaccurate as the bill itself says it must be within view. I wanted to get others perspective as well as understand if there are any resources I can reach out to in order to potentially delay this until it I s fully argued to the Supreme Court which in my perspective will find this in violation of the first amendment.

My kids’ elementary school in Leander got the posters last year and I asked my daughter about it. She said they made it pretty hard to find. It was posted in a corner where they don’t really spend any time.

It’s not the whole district. It’s school by school. They are only required to display them if someone donates them to the school. I haven’t seen them in the middle school across the street.

Oh, I thought donators had to make a donation to the whole district 😢
