Question

Read the following scenario: A social studies class is studying world religions. The teacher requires each student to visit two different churches in the community. Because it is a small community, the only churches available for students to visit are Christian. Some parents feel the requirement to visit two churches is a violation of First Amendment rights. They sue the school district. Based on your understanding of the First Amendment, which of the following outcomes is most likely? The court will rule that the teacher can require students to attend church services because it is an educational experience. The court will rule that the teacher can require students to attend church services because the services are held outside of school. The court will rule that the teacher cannot require students to attend services because they represent only one faith. The court will rule that the teacher cannot require students to attend services because it is not educational.
