“Now we are in somewhat uncharted territory,” said Michael Helfand, a professor focused on religion and ethics at Pepperdine University’s law school.

Efforts to infuse religion into government entities, including public schools, have increased in the past decade as the high court has sided with those who want fewer restrictions on religion. State lawmakers, particularly in conservative areas, have put forward hundreds of bills aimed at adding everything from public school chaplains and “In God We Trust” signs in school entranceways to public funding for religious schools through vouchers.
