Appeals Court Hears Arkansas Ten Commandments Classroom Mandate Case

A federal appeals court panel is considering arguments over Arkansas’ 2025 law requiring Ten Commandments displays in public-school classrooms, including whether six districts may enforce the mandate while litigation continues.

SE Arkansas school boards and parents should watch district counsel guidance before posting new displays. Classroom policy still follows each district’s posted procedures until courts and the Arkansas Department of Education issue final direction.
