IREDELL COUNTY, N.C. — Monday night, the Iredell-Statesville Schools Board of Education will consider a request that could make the school district the latest to adopt the Ten Commandments into schools.
School board member Brian Sloan is behind the proposal, which would lead to the creation of a poster featuring the Ten Commandments and the Bill of Rights.
Sloan said the posters would be paid for by private donations, but some school board members worry any lawsuits against the district would have to be fought using the local budget.
If the request is approved, the poster would be displayed at school entrances or in school libraries.
