Honestly if they wanted no clothes Tuesday's I'd say let them learn the hard way, if they could get the support for it more power to them. . . I do still remember what my high school student body looked like and there were more than enough people that a) I didn't want to see naked, and b) that I didn't want to see me naked, that a measure like that would never pass.
As for the group that wants to pray, no it isn't allowed. A local high school here actually had several students get EXPELLED over a song that was selected for the graduation ceremony because a single student objected to it. A little different I know, but they objected on religious grounds. They can pray privately and I understand that there are opportunities during school to pray, that's not my objection, my objection is that by the rules and your argument it's somehow more acceptable for prayer to be outlawed than it is for prayer to be endorsed, and you have yet to offer me any reason why that's reasonable?
And how is that a mistruth? By federal LAW prayer may not be school sponsored in any way, you said so yourself, thus all of the children that might like prayer in school do not have the option in any public school system.
