Abington School District v. Schempp
Tinker v. Des Moines
Answer
Abington School District v. Schempp, a parallel case involving a challenge to Bible reading and prayer in public schools, was consolidated with Edward J. Schempp's case to form a joint case presented before the Supreme Court. This consolidation allowed the Court to address the broader issue of religious practices in public education, resulting in a landmark decision that significantly impacted the separation of church and state in American schools.
