| Message | OOC: I've been having a considerable amount of trouble with the wording of this issue. Are we talking public or private? I think there needs to be a clearer distinction made. |

| Message | I think it refers to both types of schools. I supppose the curren legislation indicates that if a school leads a prayer, then the parents could sue the school regardless if it is private or public. |
