Ten Commandments; required to be displayed in certain public schools, subject to the availability of donations

SB 99 requires Alabama public schools to display the Ten Commandments with a context statement in history classrooms for grades 5-12 and common areas in schools serving 5th grade or above, but only if donated funds or displays are available. It mandates that the State Department of Education identify free resources to help schools comply and authorizes the State Board of Education to adopt rules for implementation. The bill does not impose a financial burden on schools, as it explicitly depends on donated materials rather than state funding. It applies directly to local school boards and history classrooms in Alabama public schools.
