Yom+Kippur-+Opening+Statement

Opening Statement We, the Roukebell Law Firm, are representing the North Carolina Public School System (specifically first grade) in the case of NC Public Schools vs Families Against the Teaching of Holidays in the Curriculum. The paralegal team of Hayes and Smith are representing Roukebell Law Firm in the research of teaching Yom Kippur in the first grade classroom. Our law firm has been hired to defend Dr. Chris Godwin (a twenty year veteran educator’s) rationale for teaching Yom Kippur traditions in his class. The Roukebell Law firm has developed a strong case proving his innocence, based off of evidence found in the North Carolina Standard Course of Study.
