FFRF complaint stops teachers' prayer (Feb. 27, 2015)

Two Prattville Primary School teachers in Prattville, Ala., will no longer lead students in Christian prayer during the school day. FFRF received a report that one teacher led at least six classes in prayer while students were in the hallway on the way to lunch.

Staff Attorney Sam Grover sent the Autauga County School System a complaint letter Nov. 24. The school board's attorney responded Feb. 27 that FFRF's concerns had been "specifically addressed with the two teachers mentioned" and did not anticipate a continued problem.
