Funny how Christians aren't include in that policy. But, God is a bad word and isn't allowed anywhere near a school, along with morals, and advanced classes (sarcasm).

I am disgusted about this. They have screamed for years that schools are no place for prayers, yet now they give the Muslims a special place to pray? What is wrong with this picture?

Are Christians required to pray in a certain manner at specific times during the day?

The policy of giving the muslims a room to pray is necessary in order to protect their right to free exercise. If they were to bow east in the middle of class that would be disruptive.

I know of no particular instructions regarding Christian prayer that would pre-empt any student from praying anywhere on school property at any time during the school day.

Do you?

It should also be noted that schools can and do allow students to form their own prayer groups and bible study groups and use school property to do so.
