Future veteran’s events to exclude prayer (November 30, 2015)

Coleman High School in Coleman, Wis., will not include prayers in future Memorial Day and Veterans Day assemblies after FFRF sent a letter to the superintendent. Ceremonies for the last two years at least have reportedly included religious prayers and videos.

“We ask that you take action to ensure that future assemblies do not include prayer and otherwise remain neutral toward religion,” wrote FFRF Legal Fellow Ryan Jayne in a Nov. 19 letter to Superintendent Douglas P. Polomis.

“We will make every effort to ensure that future assemblies do not include prayer and remain neutral toward religion,” Polomis responded on Nov. 30.
