Candy Canes at the Supreme Court

The Supreme Court will consider whether to take up the case of a former Saginaw, Michigan student who was told he couldn’t make an ornament with a Christian message attached to it. The fifth-grade student at Handley Elementary School made the ornament for a class project and included The Meaning of the Candy Cane which has references to Jesus. A judge ruled that the principal violated Curry's First Amendment rights but a appeals panel reversed the that decision. The high court could decide this fall whether to consider the case. Although often repeated by Christians, the Candy Cane story has been discredited as not historical.
