This past week, a member of the media asked for our perspective on H.3217, a bill that requires all classrooms in South Carolina to hang a poster of the Ten Commandments on the wall.

While the reporter did not include our statement in her article, we decided that we would publish and further articulate it here.
Our nation was founded on Christian principles and is one of the reasons our republic has lasted for 250 years. History has taught us that freedoms are only preserved when morality is prioritized, otherwise society devolves into chaos. The Ten Commandments provide a moral foundation for children and is a wonderful addition to a well-rounded, classical education.
