Would I capitalize this in my essay?

"However, even without institutionalizing religion, religion finds its way into the American public school sector shrewdly." Should "american public school" be capitalized? If not, what should? It's an academic essay, so I need this to be right! Best answer!

    You don't need to capitalize unless you are writing about a specific public school. Here you are talking about public schools in general.

    "American" should be capitalized, because it's an adjective made from a proper noun. The other words, no.
