It does not matter if one should or should not have in science classes. That is not what a court of law decides. A court only takes action if what is done in the science classes violates the law (in this case the First Amendment. Recall the separation of powers!
If there was no such thing as the First Amendment (or an equivalent), the judge might say (if feeling undiplomatic), "The stupidity is not unconstitional, case dismissed."
Now that the non-science is being put in science classrooms is also ground to elect some new people, but unfortunately the good guys might not win the election. That is one reason why those who are pro-science really need to emphasize more public outreach. Until the public at large know the importance of evolution to science and why the ID people are wrong we will continue to have trouble.
