Abstract
Abstract Near the end of its 2021–2022 term the Supreme Court ushered in a new dawn by upholding religious freedom in educational environments in two different types of disputes with far-reaching implications. In light of the Supreme Court decisions in Carson v. Makin and Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, this article reflects on their significance, the most important point of which is the latter’s having invalidated its longstanding measure for reviewing disputes under the First Amendment, the tripartite Lemon v. Kurtzman test as well as the endorsement test it enunciated in Lynch v. Donnelly for public schools.
