The correct answer is B) the clause barring the government from establishing a religion.
The Warren Court ruled that official prayer in public schools is unconstitutional because it violates the clause barring the government from establishing a religion.
We are referring to the case Engel v. Vitale that started on April 3, 1962, and ended on June 25, 1962. The Supreme Court decision was that it was unconstitutional to have an official prayer in school and asked to say it aloud in the public school premises. Chief Justice Eral Warren considered that this violated the Establishment Clause of the 1st Amendment.
The correct answer is alternative B: to end segregation in public education.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) filed the case with the claim that it was unconstitutional to have segregated facilities for black and white. They won the case, and the United States Supreme Court ruled racial segregation to be unconstitutional in public schools.
It would help the nation focus on pressing problems.
