New Blog/Resource at the First Amendment Center on Religion in Schools

The First Amendment Center is in the progress of updating their religion and schools content and presentation. The new site is here: http://www.religionpublicschools.org. I am not sure whether everything will be updated to reflect the new format or whether the page will just link to current First Amendment Center formats. I do like the new presentation of the information as it is much easier to navigate and it is a legal resources that principals should bookmark.

Also, Charles Haynes' latest post on Beyond the School Wars is a good read on religion, public schools and avoiding conflict. The historical information was great and I especially liked his recommendation that pre-service teachers need to have some background in religious liberities before entering the classroom.
