Victory: Arkansas Student Will Be Able to Share His Faith during Social Time

Jorge Gomez : Oct 9, 2025  First Liberty

"I'm glad the school agreed to do the right thing. Freedom of speech isn't just a right, it's the foundation of our liberty. Christians must stand up, speak out, and defend our right to share what we believe." -Zion Ramos, student

[FirstLiberty.org] On Thursday, First Liberty secured a victory for high school student Zion Ramos. A teacher at Arkansas Connections Academy muted and removed Zion from an online meeting when he began sharing his faith with other students. (Screengrab image: via First Liberty /Zoom)

We sent a letter to the school demanding that it no longer censor or violate the free speech and religious expression of students, now and in the future.

Every day, students have a "social time" Zoom meeting to talk about whatever they want, provided the comments are not violent, vulgar or obscene. Inspired by the recent memorial service for Charlie Kirk, Zion felt compelled to share his faith in a two-minute statement.

Suddenly, the teacher muted him. Once he realized he was muted, Zion unmuted himself to continue sharing his message. However, as he continued to speak, the teacher removed him from the Zoom call. A few minutes later, the meeting was shut down entirely.

In less than 72 hours, the school responded favorably to our letter. School officials agreed to grant Zion three minutes to share his faith at an upcoming social time event, as First Liberty requested.

School officials also confirmed that they will support the free speech and free exercise rights of students and complete religious liberty training through the RESPECT Project within 60 days... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
