New initiatives to establish religious charter schools are gaining traction across several states, as advocates seek clarity from the U.S. Supreme Court regarding their constitutional status. Following a 4-4 deadlock last year on the St. Isidore of Seville Catholic virtual charter school case, proponents view this as an opportunity to push forward. Eric Baxter, vice president and senior counsel of the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, said: "The [U.S. Supreme] Court has made clear that once you start funding private entities, you cannot exclude participants because of their religion." Meanwhile, opponents, including Alex J. Luchenitser of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, argue that the Constitution prohibits religious public charter schools. Recent proposals include the Ben Gamla Jewish Charter School in Oklahoma and the Wilburforce Academy in Tennessee, both facing legal scrutiny. The outcomes of these efforts could significantly impact the educational landscape and the future of religious charter schools in the U.S.
