Ten Commandments; required to be displayed in certain public schools, subject to the availability of donations

Summary

The bill obligates each local board of education to post a Ten Commandments poster and an explanatory statement in every fifth‑through‑twelfth grade history classroom and in a common area for those grades, but only when a donated display or donated money can be used. The State Department of Education must publicize free resources to help schools comply, and the State Board of Education may adopt implementing rules. It is intended to teach the historical role of the Ten Commandments and related founding documents.
