A Connecticut teacher with over three decades of service has been suspended after refusing to take down a crucifix she's displayed in her classroom for ten years, a move religious liberty advocates argue violates her constitutional rights.
Marisol Arroyo-Castro, a teacher at DiLoreto Elementary and Middle School in New Britain, was placed on administrative leave. The district alleges her display of a crucifix near her desk violated laws mandating religious neutrality in public schools.
