The prayer that is said in school has been a controversial topic for years. This prayer is said before the school day starts, and it is said by the principal or the superintendent of schools. There are many different views on this prayer, but I believe that it should be allowed because it’s not a forced prayer, and it’s not illegal.
The reason why some people think that this prayer shouldn’t be allowed is because it violates our rights as Americans. They say that we should have freedom from religion, and therefore we should not have any religious activities in school at all. I disagree with this statement because although we do have freedom from religion, there are still many religions out there. Our country was founded on Christianity, so there will always be some form of Christian influence in schools.

Short prayer in school
Another reason why people think that this prayer should not be allowed is because they believe it forces students to participate in something they do not believe in or agree with at all. They also say that students can feel uncomfortable when they hear things that go against their beliefs or morals while they are trying to learn new material at school every day.

We want to thank you for the opportunity to be here today, and we pray that you’ll protect us as we learn. We also ask that you help us put our phones away and pay attention, so that we can learn as much as possible. Thank you for all of this!
