Concept information

Preferred term

released time  

Definition(s)

  • Released time programs allow for public school students, who have written requests from their parents, to take time during regular school hours to receive religious instruction. In many ways, this program is an invitation for constitutional conflict, pitting the establishment clause of the First Amendment against those wishing to initiate and participate in such programs. [Source: Encyclopedia of the First Amendment; Released Time]
