Prayer In School

With the discussion of morales, ethics and values we need to teach our children it is OK to have prayer in SAD 63. There's not a single thing preventing individuals or groups of any people (students or adults) voluntarily and privately offering prayers (as long as it does not disrupt classes or scheduled events). There is no law prohibiting voluntary "private" prayer by individuals. In fact, many schools have groups of students who gather each morning before school for "prayer circles." Brings to mind the church song, "We gather together to ask the Lord's Blessings..." What a great way for child to start the day, bless their meals or others gathered around them. Please support having your child offer prayers circles with friends at lunch or recess. Let bring love and kindness and respect to all.
