Georgia violations will be addressed (July 15, 2015)

After a teacher delivered a prayer at Lowndes High School's Freshman Academy Awards Night and a Lake Park Elementary School event was held in a church, Lowndes County Schools is taking steps to ensure no further violations of the separation of church and state will occur.

Staff Attorney Madeline Ziegler sent two letters to the Valdosta, Ga., school district after the issues were reported. Counsel for the school district, Warren Turner, promptly resolved the matters and assured FFRF that school administrators now understand the law.
