Red Wing School Board Bans Baccalaureates and Bible in Schools
The Red Wing school board voted to remove religious elements from public schools. Baccalaureate services will be dropped, Easter and Christmas programs renamed, and Bible dramatizations and Gideon distribution halted. The policy aims to align with Supreme Court guidance on church-state separation. Red Wing population about 11 000 sits 40 miles southeast of St Paul along the Mississippi River.
