Why prayer in Public Schools is a "NO"

Two main reasons why people feel that prayer in public schools should not be permitted is to keep the separation of church and state, and allow freedom on conscience.

The ADL “The United States Supreme Court has clearly ruled that organized vocal prayer and ceremonial reading from the Bible are unconstitutional practices in the public school classroom”(1).

The ADL feels that keeping the church and state separate is necessary to keep religious freedom in the schools. They feel that religious liberty is very important, especially in the schools.
