They aren't. They are just expecting the ones that are already in place to be followed.

The problem I have is that they don't know the laws that are already in place, or they are seeking to mislead about what they are. There is no federal law or constitutional prohibition that prevents a school from taking a field trip to that ark exhibit.

Lets see if we can get any honesty from Viz.

Is it a biblical ark if it has a bow and a keel?

OK? If the people in a community want that from their local school, they can do that.

The bible really doesn't say it had a bow and a keel. Nor does it say it didn't. I'm ok with speculation on the topic, but I would not die on that hill in an argument.

The Bible doesn't give specific details other than length, width, that it had 3 decks, and some other things. It really doesn't say.

I've seen a lot of speculation on what it MIGHT have looked like.
