In an effort to share positive and uplifting messages with their football players, middle school and high school cheerleaders in Kountze, Texas, made a team decision to paint Bible verses on run-through banners at games. Their inspirational signs were banned after the superintendent received a complaint letter from the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). In an 8-0 decision on January 29, the Texas Supreme Court decided the case in favor of the Kountze cheerleaders. The case now returns to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth District in Beaumont, Texas.
