More about June: June Everett is the National Campaign Director for The Satanic Temple’s After School Satan Club (ASSC), Hellions Academy of Independent Learning (HAIL), and High School Satan Club (HSSC), and is an ordained minister of The Satanic Temple. She leads the national expansion and equal-access advocacy for TST’s youth programs, challenging Christian Nationalist efforts to turn public schools into a church annex.
June has launched these programs in more than twenty school districts nationwide and has been part of major federal legal victories with the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the American Civil Liberties Union, and Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. Her work also helps districts navigate the impact of two key Supreme Court decisions: the 2001 Good News Club v. Milford ruling, which created today’s “limited public forum,” and the 1952 Zorach v. Clauson decision, which enabled modern Release Time Religious Instruction programs like LifeWise Academy."6 attendees
