I was thinking of prayer in a public setting, e.g., before a football game, etc. This is not the case in all districts. But it is the case in some districts.

The other reference had to do with some teachers in some districts refusing students to bring Bibles on school property. I tried to find the file concerning a teacher in Texas (and, again, I cannot find the file, so don't quote me) who confiscated two Bibles and threw them in the trash.
I will find that article and share it later.

Currently, there is a case in court in our own district where a teacher refused to allow a student in high school to bring a Bible on school grounds. This all in contradistinction to some of these same school districts requiring students to read the Koran (Byron, CA; University of North Carolina).

The public is finding out what Christians have known for decades: if you're white, middle class Christians, especially if you are male, you are an absolute target. They will show no mercy. The forces at work are determined to absolutely silence our voices.

This country has gone absolutely nuts.

Now in my estimation that's dead wrong. I don't favor the teacher leading kids in prayers, but I see absolutely nothing in the Constitution that would ban someone from bringing a Bible to school. In fact, I'd favor the school having a Bible in it's library, along with the holy books of other religions. If someone complained about spending public money on them, I'm sure there'd be no dearth of donations. There's lots of books in a school library that kids don't read out of choice, so I don't see what complaint an atheist would have.
