Public education thinks it can be neutral.
Mosque attendance by schools is now a customary practice in the Netherlands. In a recent survey of 380 school leaders by Verus, an association of Catholic and Protestant schools (primary and secondary education), 41% of the respondents reported that they visit non-Christian places of worship as a school. This "nonChristian place of worship" is almost always a mosque. The chairman of Verus, Loes Ypma (former member of parliament for the Dutch Labour Party) apparently sees this as a positive development. "We also find it positive to see", she says in the accompanying press release, "that almost half of the schools surveyed are non-Christian places of worship because it contributes to the understanding and knowledge of other religions. This is very important in our multi-religious society where there is such a need of connection and respect." linky
In the US, most states have "diversity" classes required for anyone getting licensure. See for example, a typical Minnesota course description: Understand the impact of diversity in the classroom: race, culture & ethnicity, class, gender, language, and sexual orientation. Explore nature, causes, and effects of prejudice. Experience methods that enhance the academic success of all children. These courses are meant to soften "prejudice" against fringe and deviant cultural practices,

Even the present Pope prefers, to shut down any direct attempts at conversion.

Unless a student, whatever religion, is proselytizing on campus and is simply reading and studying his/her (screw the alphabeters) Bible than it should not ever be an issue.

Why wouldn’t it be legal?

When lawyers get ahold of a God given right it ceases to be.

SHOW ME a law made by Congress that respects an establishment of religion, or prohibits the free exercise thereof, and I’ll show you a violation of the 1st Amendment (1A).

Any other interpretation of the free exercise clause is based on rumors, gossip, hearsay, and scandalous interpretations of 1A by post-FDR era, anti-religious expression activist justices and judges imo.

Fat, dumb and happy, Constitution-illiterate citizens don’t help either.

The idea that bringing Bibles to school is unconstitutional is another example of corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress failing to do its 14th Amendment (14A) duty to make laws to discourage state actors from abridging rights that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect.

From the 14th Amendment:

Patriots need to elect a new patriot Congress in the 2020 elections that will not only promise to support PDJT’s vision for MAGA, now KAG, but will also do this.

New patriot lawmakers also need to promise to do their 14A duty to make penal laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated rights, the right of students to bring their Bibles to school as an expression of faith in this example.

Remember in November 2020!

MAGA! Now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
