On Friday, May 02, 2025, Governor Kevin Stitt issued the following statement after the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board v. Drummond, otherwise known as the St. Isidore case.

"The United States Supreme Court heard a case that goes to the very heart of what makes our nation great— freedom of religion. I’m proud Oklahoma is standing firm for the constitutional rights our Founding Fathers enshrined, including the right of religious institutions to participate equally in public life.

The idea that a school should be disqualified from serving students simply because it’s rooted in faith is discriminatory and un-American. Every child deserves access to a quality education, and every family should have the freedom to choose a school that reflects their values. Ultimately, parents should have more options for their kids, not fewer. I’m grateful to the Trump administration, the governors, attorneys general, and members of congress who are with us in this fight."
