| Abstract: | Part of the Center for Education Equity's "Exploring Equity Issues" series, this paper gives a background on religious discrimination in schools and provides strategies on what schools can do to address and resolve these problems. The First Amendment to the United States Constitution establishes the right to the free exercise of religion. Federal laws, including Title IV of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964, prohibit discrimination in educational institutions. Nonetheless, students of all ages and grade levels experience discrimination on the basis of religion. Students who experience bullying and harassment (by peers, teachers, and administrators) based on their religion may disengage from educational opportunities, have poor academic performance, and ultimately fail to reach their full potential (Wolfpert, 2010). These consequences then affect schools and communities. Without an understanding of how religion intersects with gender, ethnicity, and national origin, educators do not have the essential information to implement effective solutions to complex educational challenges. Steps that schools can take to intervene include: (1) review and revise school policies; (2) review and adapt curricula; (3) review textbooks; and (4) educate parents.
