Opening Your Schools.

Dowling-Sendor, Benjamin

American School Board Journal, v186 n5 p21,63 May 1999

The Good News Club sued the Milford (New York) Public Schools in federal district court for prohibiting the group from meeting on school grounds. Judge McVoy dismissed the case; the club's weekly meetings did not fit the category of secular youth group meetings allowed in the district's limited public forum. (MLH)
