He says they didn't do it, but here's how they didn't do it:
"Thank you for checking for the facts. No afternoon prayer session was organized by any adult or staff member. Dunlap is a Seattle Public School and as such there is a clear separation of church and state. It is the policy of Seattle School Board that no religious belief or non-belief be promoted by the School District or its employees, and none should be disparaged. We do not have a prayer policy, nor was anything kept quiet. During Ramadan, a couple of Muslim families whose children attend Dunlap contacted the school and asked for the reasonable religious accommodation of allowing their children a place to prayer during the month preceding their holiday Eide. It is my understanding that it is lawful for schools to excuse students briefly from class to enable them to fulfill their religious obligations. My further understanding is that due to safety issues it is allowable for a staff member to supervise those obligations. At Dunlap during this month, between classes, an ELL teacher supervised students for five minutes each day. This no longer happens as Ramadan is over. Yes, any family, from any religious group may request reasonable religious accommodation from any public school. I am unaware of what Aki Kurose does at their school but I assume it is a similar effort to make a religious accommodation."

Funny.. that's exactly what the Constitution says too, but it seems to make little difference to the 'separation of church and state' crowd.

GREAT! I represent the Church of the Naked High School Female Cheerleaders. We need to be accomadated with a plastic mat and some baby oil,...and maybe a digital camera,...oh, and some pizza. No sponsor needed. OOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm.
Too bad this person does not have any real working knowledge of the ficticious "separation of church and state" meaning and what it is NOT in our country. To him it most likely means "Anything non-christian."
