[quote=Anonymous]I would be alright with a "quiet room" for students who wanted to pray, meditate, or whatever during lunch or a free period. But closing school or having a religiously sanctioned area is over the top. For Muslims, it's preferable that you pray "standing up," but there if circumstances don't allow (elderly, disabled, on an airplane, in a car, etc) there's no issue with praying while sitting in a chair. It might cause teasing or be disruptive to pray during class, but a "quiet room" open to all is a reasonable compromise. But it should be on the student's time (lunch, homeroom, recess, a free period, etc), not taking away from academic time. [/quote]
