A southern Ohio school district has agreed to keep a portrait of Jesus Christ off its property and pay $95,000 in damages and legal fees after settling a lawsuit with the American Civil Liberties Union and the Freedom from Religion Foundation.

The portrait had hung for decades in both the districtโ€™s middle school and the high schoolโ€™s โ€œHall of Honorโ€ display, which is meant to highlight famous historical figures. The groups sued the school district in Jackson, Ohio, citing โ€œunconstitutionalโ€ behavior and arguing that visitors and students at the school would โ€œcontinue to suffer permanent, severe and irreparable harm and injury,โ€ if the portrait were not removed.

According to WSAZ, the portrait was donated by a student group. It was removed in April, and the district reached an agreement with the groups late last week after deciding to pay the fine rather than fight the suit.
