Question
the government gives public funds to low - performing schools for new computers. they decide to give more money to the lowest performers, some of which happen to promote multidenominational religions. according to the establishment clause, how would a court rule on this case? as a direct violation of the clause because government institutions cannot support religious institutions for any reason as a violation of the clause because the government gave more money to religious schools than public schools as in compliance with the clause because the governments action was for a secular purpose, did not advance a particular religion, and was unentangled as in compliance with the clause because the government gave money to fewer religious schools than public schools
The Establishment Clause requires government actions to have a secular purpose, not advance a particular religion, and avoid excessive entanglement. The government is giving funds for new computers to low - performing schools (including some religious ones) based on performance, not to promote religion. So it meets the criteria.
