  Case: Prayer in School
Is it okay for teachers to pray with their students at school?
One of the teachers I work with stops the students everyday at 9:11AM to pray for those who passed during the 9/11 terrorist attack. So it is a mixed bag, but I want to know what is morally correct.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As touching as that is, I would avoid at all costs praying with my students. We are not sure of everyone's religious beliefs and you do not want to offend anyone, especially the child's parents. It has more risks than it is worth.
