At the public high school in Alexandria, Alabama, the PA system was used at the beginning of the school day to broadcast student-led prayers. Though several classmates disapproved, as this report from the Aniston Star describes, one finally did something about it.
I looked this up. It's illegal," the student said. "It wasn't just me; there were a bunch of other students who wanted it stopped."
He said he demanded it stop in a voicemail sent to Superintendent Judy Stiefel. He also contacted the American Civil Liberties Union by e-mail and by hand-written letter to complain about the issue.

In response to the complaint, Stiefel sent out an e-mail earlier this week to every school in the system. She said Wednesday the e-mail "reminded them of the law." The morning prayers at Alexandria High stopped Tuesday.
