3rd Circuit Hears Oral Arguments On School Holiday Concert Policy

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS

The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday heard oral arguments in Stratechuk v. Board of Education, South Orange Maplewood School District. In the case, a New Jersey federal district court upheld a school board's holiday music policy that barred inclusion of religious holiday music in school holiday concerts. (See prior posting.) The New York Times, reporting on yesterday's arguments, quoted attorney Robert Muise who represented those challenging the school's policy. He thinks the 3rd Circuit panel is not sympathetic to the challenge.
