The prohibition of prayer in the Public Schools began with a Supreme Court ruling in 1947.

However, what I find questionable is why the Supreme Court can rule on the conduct of the Public School system since Congress has no power to legislate Public Schools.

The answer is because of another unconstitutional action of Congress; funding Public Schools. If the Federal government provides funding, guidance, and influence then prayer can be interpreted as an attempt to establish a religion by an agenda driven Supreme Court and Congress.
