A federal district court judge issued a ruling on May 31st enjoining a Connecticut school district from holding its high school graduation ceremonies at a local cathedral. The judge found that the plaintiffs, including several students and parents, had established a substantial likelihood of success on the merits of their claim that holding the graduation ceremonies at the cathedral would violate the Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution. The court’s ruling is subject to possible appeal. For the full court opinion, please click here.
