I think it sad that there are still Christians in this country who think that America is ever going to return to its Christian roots, or that the American justice system could possibly serve a Christian worldview any more as it once did. The system is utterly revisionist and anti-Christian these days. It's long past time the Christians completely opted out of the system, kept their children out of the public schools, either home schooled them or sent them to private schools, en masse.
I'd add one thought however. As a sophomore in high school in 1957 I was subjected to one very aggressive teacher who debunked and ridiculed Christian belief as strenuously as anyone at EvC does. At the time I wasn't much of a Christian believer, my parents weren't really believers, they'd just sent us to church and made no real issue about any of it, so under the onslaught of this math teacher I lost what little "faith" I had at the time, and found this teacher's carryings on quite humorous, sophisticated and refreshing. My best friend and I could be said to have worshiped the man for his contribution to our enlightenment. He made an avowed atheist of me.
Thirty some odd years later God reached down and made a believer of me totally unexpectedly.
We don't have to depend on having Christian faith affirmed in the schools or anywhere else; it's God who saves, and often in history it has been when Christianity is most ridiculed and persecuted that the greatest revivals have broken out.
