New Knox County ruling opens door to religious charter schools in Tennessee

An explicitly Christian charter school won the right to apply to operate in Knox County after a federal judge said Nov. 6 that a provision in Tennessee law requiring charter schools to be "nonsectarian" and "nonreligious" violates the First Amendment. The ruling opens the door for charter schools of any religious faith to apply for funding from the state. Charter schools are public schools that are operated by an independent nonprofit within a school district. They receive taxpayer-provided funding from the state and must comply with state academic standards and the state's open meetings and open records laws. They are different from school vouchers, which allow parents to apply a payment from the state for tuition to private schools, including religious ones. Wilberforce Academy of Knoxville sued the Knox County school board in November 2025 after the public school district told organizers their application would be rejected because they aim to provide "Christian educational services" by operating a "Christian charter school." The charter school for students in grades kindergarten through eighth intends to focus on "explicit Christian formation and virtue development," according to the group's website . Alongside a classical education, students would learn Bible stories and catechism, memorize Scripture

SCMS Students On a Kill List; Parent Upset

The Standard learned last week, students were in trouble for compiling a list of students with the header, Kill List. We spoke with one of the parents with a student on the list. Many people in Stewart Co. learned on social media. It even made the news in Nashville. The school system put out a Facebook post, which read in part, “We want to inform you that school administration at Stewart Co. Middle School recently discovered a document containing a hit list. Upon discovery, the matter was immediately reported to law enforcement for investigation and appropriate followup. Based on the information available at the time, there was no imminent danger to students or staff.” School Director Mike Craig went on to state on the Facebook post, the Standard was never contacted, “Our administration continues to work closely with local law enforcement and Homeland Security to support the ongoing investigation, assess any potential concerns, and ensure that appropriate safety measures remain in place. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure learning environment for every student and staff member. We ask that our community remain calm, avoid spreading unverified information, and rely on official school communications for accurate updates.” This post did not sit well with many parents based on the comments. Many said they were not assured or contacted.
