In mccollum v. board of education, why did the supreme court strike down a public school "released time" program? the classes taught incorrect religious ideas. the classes were not open to all students. the students did not want to attend the classes. the religious classes were held in public facilities.

The correct answer is the religious classes were held in public facilities.

The supreme court declared that the schools were federally funded which meant that they were funded by taxpayers. This meant that teaching religious things in schools was unconstitutional since it would be as if the national government is supporting a certain religion, which would go against the establishment clause of the first amendment.

Hi there! The correct answer to this question would be "The religious classes were held in public facilities"
