Protecting Religious Vitality.
Dowling-Sendor, Benjamin
American School Board Journal, v185 n12 p35-36 Dec 1998
Jerry Cammarata's poignant article provides a valuable opportunity to discuss the Supreme Court's wisdom in prohibiting nondenominational prayer in public schools in 1962 ("Engel v. Vitale") and to review current case law. The Constitution permits prayer chosen and spoken privately by a student, supported by family, friends, and clergy. The Establishment Clause is not anti- religion. (MLH)
