  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!)
There should be no "praying" in the classroom, but there can be a moment of silence. There are normally religious clubs at the schools that students and teachers can join if they want to.

Comments: I think this is a good solution so that way the teacher can still honor those who died without making it about religion.
