DENVER — A federal district court judge ruled over the weekend that faith-based schools can participate in Colorado's universal preschool program without changing religious policies.
Schools like DPCA said they hire consistently with their faith and require employees to share their convictions. St. Mary Catholic Parish in Littleton and St. Bernadette Catholic Parish in Lakewood, along with the Denver Archdiocese, also filed suit, arguing the universal preschool rules infringe on faith-based schools' First Amendment rights.
“When you're competing with 15 hours of free preschool, even a very reasonably-priced preschool can't compete,” Nick Reaves, an attorney for the plaintiffs, said.
