Q: Describe the case of Yoder.
Yoder (1972): This case is somewhat similar to Scherbert in the approach the Court takes. In this case, Wisconson’s statute required that kids go to high school until they are 16. Ps (Amish) did not want to sent their kids to high school after they were 14, for religious reasons. Specifically, they believed high school attendance was contrary to the Amish religion and way of life. Sending their kids to high school would endanger their salvation. They presented expert scholars in support of their position. Was this a violation of Ps’ Free Exercise?
