False

This case focused on forced religion in public schools. The case revolves around a Pennsylvania school that forced students to hear and read different parts of the Bible as part of their curriculum. Schempp argued that this is a violation of the first amendment right of freedom of speech, as the state (aka any government/public entity) should not promote a specific religion. The Supreme Court judges voted 8-1 in favor of Schempp.
