[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if these dinners are actually okay based on a past court rulings that allows public schools to host Christmas Pageants for example. The separation of church and state for schools has never been well defined and recent court cases have allowed coaches to pray with the team prior to games, or baccalaureate services for graduating seniors at houses of worship to continue. “school activities that recognize seasonal religious holidays are permitted as long as they have a secular educational purpose and do not promote the religious beliefs or traditions of those involved (Florey v. Sioux Falls School District, 8th Cir., 1980)”[/quote]
