South Carolina H3758 establishes a model policy for school districts to ensure nondiscrimination against students' voluntary religious expressions.
South Carolina H3758 amends the Religious Viewpoints Antidiscrimination Act to provide a model policy for school districts. This policy mandates that school districts treat students' voluntary religious expressions on permissible subjects the same as secular expressions, without discrimination. The bill also creates a limited public forum for student speakers at school events, ensuring selection criteria are neutral and that students do not engage in obscene speech. The policy requires disclaimers to clarify that student speech does not reflect school endorsement.
