The Austin Independent School District (ISD) has announced a temporary suspension of plans to display the Ten Commandments in its classrooms following a preliminary injunction issued by a district judge.

This development comes in response to Senate Bill 10, which mandates the display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms starting September 1.

The injunction, which serves as a temporary legal block, was granted after a lawsuit filed by families and faith leaders sought to prevent the law’s implementation across multiple school districts. While the injunction lists 11 districts, including Alamo Heights, North East, and Plano, Austin ISD and Houston ISD confirmed they were not directly impacted by this order.

According to a statement made by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, an appeal against the court’s ruling has been filed. Meanwhile, Austin ISD’s legal team has successfully obtained a dismissal from the lawsuit, affirming its commitment to comply with any court-issued injunctions related to Senate Bill 10. The district emphasized that “in light of the court’s recent injunction, Austin ISD will not display the Ten Commandments in our schools.”

This legal maneuver reflects ongoing tensions and negotiations over religious displays in public education, highlighting the complexities faced by school districts in balancing legislative mandates and judicial interventions. As the legal proceedings continue, the Austin ISD and other affected districts remain vigilant, ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
