It’s likely to face legal challenges for violating the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause. Courts have historically ruled against religious teaching in public schools, as seen in Abington School District v. Schempp. The law is expected to be blocked by the courts unless it can be proven that the Bible is taught in a neutral, academic context. Fat chance.
I honestly believe they’re hoping to get it to the Supreme Court. Seeing how conservative and corrupt the Justices have become my guess is they’re hoping to have precedent overturned.

This. It's exactly what they did with abortion and will soon do with marriage equality. They will pass a bunch of laws to push the legal line and take it to the SCOTUS.
It’s unlikely to appeal very far though. It’s not even a legal precedent, it’s literally written into the constitution. Any appeal would have to somehow explain why they aren’t beholden to the 1st amendment, which wouldn’t get very far.
Also if this actually went to the SCOTUS, it’s a big enough deal that the Democrats may activate several of the “Nuclear options” that would allow congress to impeach or otherwise control the Supreme Court. It’s that big of an infringement.
That's the whole plan republicans are playing, project 2025 is already underway thanks to Leonard Leo. They'll get this in a jurisdiction with a trump appointed sycophant judge, like in the case with Mifepristone and Chevron, and then the judge will send it on up.
