The Supreme Court will hear a legal challenge next week brought by Maryland parents who seek to opt their elementary school children out of hearing about LGBTQ topics during story time.
The case stems from the Montgomery County Board of Education's decision to roll back its 2022 policy to notify parents and guardians of students about the "inclusivity" program's LGBTQ story time in advance, and allow them to opt their Pre-K to fifth
grade children out.
The school reversed the policy in 2023, but continued the program, per the Washington Times.
The challenge is brought by a group of parents from various religions, including Christianity, Islam and Judaism, who argue the reversal infringes on their free exercise of religion because their faiths do not support LGBTQ teachings.
The Supreme Court will hear the case, Mahmoud v. Taylor, on Tuesday.
