Bibles are not outright banned in public schools in the U.S., but their use is subject to restrictions due to the First Amendment's separation of church and state. Students may bring Bibles to school and read them during free time, but school officials cannot promote or endorse The Bible or any religious texts in a way that could be seen as violating the Establishment Clause. Religious instruction or activities led by school staff are also prohibited. Schools must ensure that their policies respect the rights of students to engage with religious texts while maintaining a neutral educational environment.
