Prayer in public school is allowed (Unoffically). Some even abuse it. Last year three kids at EHS thought it would be funny if they messed around and prayed for 30 minutes. (to get out of work.) The teacher got angry that they weren't working and called the princaple(sp?). He came down and talked with the kids and teacher. And in the end he said that kids did nothing wrong. (Probably because he didn't want to look like a nazi or something.) After that the teacher came back in all mad and left, she didn't return till next week. I don't know if it was because of the princaple(sp?) or if she was just angry.
And if you think that kids are never forced to recite "The Pledge of Allegiance" you're sadly mistaken. In all JROTC (Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps) all cadets are required to recite "The Pledge of Allegiance" everyday before class starts. Even if they already recited it earlier that day. (And PS: President Dwight D. Eisenhower approved the addition of "Under God". And give credit, Francis Bellamy & James Upham authored the pledge.)
But anyway, I believe that if you want to pray go ahead. But don't try and "Recruit" people. And pick your times, because you're there to learn in the first place. It might be your way but it isn't everyone's.
