Christian Club Sues Hawaii Department Of Education After Allegedly Being Barred From School Grounds
A Christian after-school club organization filed a lawsuit Tuesday against the Hawaii Department of Education after allegedly being barred from operating a club on several elementary school campuses.
Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) of Hawaii applied in 2022 and in 2023 to become a registered club at multiple schools throughout the state but was denied approval both times, according to the complaint. The organization argues in the lawsuit that the department is discriminating against its Good News Clubs due to their religious beliefs, while allowing other non-religious clubs to operate on school grounds.
