The Supreme Court agreed Friday to consider reviving an effort to create the nation’s first publicly funded religious charter school.

In what is set to become a major case implicating religious rights, the justices said they would consider an appeal of an Oklahoma Supreme Court ruling that has blocked the St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School from opening.

Friday’s order sets a briefing schedule enabling the case to potentially be heard this term, which would culminate in a decision by early summer.

The order also indicated Justice Amy Coney Barrett, one of President Trump’s appointees, recused herself from the case but provided no explanation.
