Equal Access Act of 1984

Read a random definition: writ of waste

A quick definition of Equal Access Act of 1984:

The Equal Access Act of 1984 is a law that says schools that receive money from the government and let students have clubs after school cannot say no to students who want to have a club for religious or other reasons. This means that if you want to have a club at school, the school cannot say no just because it is a religious club. The law was checked by the Supreme Court and they said it was okay.

A more thorough explanation:

The Equal Access Act of 1984 is a law that says if a school gets money from the government and lets students have clubs or groups after school, they can't say no to students who want to start a religious club or group. This means that if a school has a chess club or a drama club, they also have to let students have a Bible club or a Muslim club.

For example, if a high school has a debate team that meets after school, they also have to let students start a club that talks about their religion or beliefs. The school can't say no just because they don't like the religion or beliefs.

The Equal Access Act was made to make sure that students have the right to talk about their religion or beliefs at school, even if the school doesn't agree with them. It's important because it helps protect students' freedom of speech and religion.
