Prayer in school forces exposure of those who do not wish to pray, and maybe they don't want others knowing.
For example, "bow your head and pray" comes over the intercom and all the non-believers don't bow their head... then the students single them out, make fun of them, whatever... maybe they don't want everyone knowing.
That is why there is no prayer... that and public govt schools have no place even TOUCHING religion. If students wanna gather on their own time outside of the school's money/time, that's fine.
