STUDENTS VOTE ON PRAYER

Students in a Austin, Texas suburb will not be allowed to vote anymore on whether they want to include prayer in their graduation ceremony. The decision by a federal judge is part of a settlement between Americans United for Separation of Church and State and the Round Rock school district. Students at three of four high schools in the district had voted in favor of allowing prayers at their graduations. But the school district is now forbidden to survey the students any further on whether they want prayers or any other religious aspect to their graduations.
