Supreme Court to decide fate of first publicly funded Catholic charter school

Published January 24, 2025 5:02pm ET



The Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear a case to determine whether the nation’s first publicly funded religious charter school can open in Oklahoma, setting the stage for a major religious liberty ruling later this term.

The justices granted review in OK Charter School Board, et al. v. Drummond, Att’y Gen. of OK and St. Isidore of Seville Sch. v. Drummond, Att’y Gen. of OK, consolidating the two cases into one and allotting one hour for oral arguments. Petitioners must file briefs by March 5, with responses due by March 31 and replies by April 21. Justice Amy Coney Barrett did not participate in the decision to grant review.
