Florida's Osceola School Board Rejects Religious Chaplains Amid Satanic Temple Opposition
Aug 28, 2024, 01:58 PM
The Osceola School Board in Florida has voted against a motion to introduce religious chaplains into public schools. This decision effectively prevents organizations like the Satanic Temple and other religious groups from providing counseling services to students. The move comes after the Florida administration, led by Governor Ron DeSantis, encouraged the introduction of religious chaplains in schools. The Satanic Temple and the Satanic Church have expressed strong opposition, arguing that the state's actions block certain world religions from participating in the chaplain program. The board's decision is seen as a temporary measure, with the possibility of revisiting the issue in the future.
