Schools must never mix religious
doctrine, beliefs, teachings or
prayers as part of the school day.
Teachers and other school personal
should never impose or encourage
their own beliefs on the students.
In our diverse society each
individual regardless of age should
be allowed and encourage to develop
their own spiritual paths and
understanding. However it needs to
be a part of the Social Studies
curriculum as a neutral informative
feature in which the students
understand how all religions,
teachings and beliefs mold the
cultures and histories of all
societies, countries and
individuals. |

Schools should never take
sides on religious doctrines, beliefs and
traditions. One must understand
how religious education differs from public
education to understand the issue fully.
Both have different objectives and methods
of instruction. |
