More like the back of the bus. How can 12 people block the flow of trafic in the Commons area, that is not a hallway?

It can certainly be done. But even if they are just inconveniencing people but making them walk around them, the school doesn't have to put up with it. I have seen no evidence that the school allows other groups to meet in the Commons area. Why should this group be special? And again, if ALL they wanted to do was pray, they were provided a room to do so. Obviously, they had somethine else in mind.

No and you probably won't, wonder why that is?

Go check out a few schools Stone, there are several shortcomings in your understanding of the public school process.
