State
In *Wisconsin v. Yoder* (1972) the Court exempted Amish families from compulsory schooling past the eighth grade.

The state's interest in two more years of education did not outweigh a long-established religious way of life.
Watch for
An exemption is granted against a specific law on a specific record, not as a standing exception.
