First Amendment to the
U.S. Constitution Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the
press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government
for a redress of grievances.
Scenario H:

of the schools' graduation ceremonies. The father of one student sought an injunction
barring the school system from continuing this practice.
Does the first amendment support the father's
right to prevent such prayers? YES NO
