Satanic Temple article: https://thesatanictemple.com/blogs/news/saucon-valley-district-settles-over-after-school-satan-club-ban-amid-school-board-election-losses-tied-to-financially-wasteful-ego-driven-legal-melodramas
ACLU article: https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/pennsylvania-school-district-agrees-to-pay-200000-after-discriminatory-decision-to-block-after-school-satan-club-from-school-facilities
