Texas state law orders that donated "In God We Trust" signs must be displayed in schools in a conspicuous place

Signs saying "In God We Trust" will now hang in Carroll ISD schools after being donated by a locally-owned wireless provider.

Patriot Mobile, which labels itself a Christian conservative wireless provider, donated the signs to the Carroll Independent School District and they will now be hung in CISD schools.

According to a state law passed in 2021, schools are required to display signs or posters bearing the national motto in a conspicuous place provided that the signs were donated to the school or bought with private donations.

Carroll ISD  Southlake is a weird place these days.  I hope the conservatives can reclaim the place from the recent Californifacation.

Ceremonial deism.  But it's better than nothing.

It's the national motto, after all, which makes the signs a type of history lesson. It can tie into a discussion of the Cold War and the 1950s (as it was adopted in 1956).

It's not like they say, "Yay, Trump" or "Visualize whirled peas."

If it is good enough for the Dollar Bill then it is good enough for every thing.
