"See You At The Pole" Is Tomorrow

Tomorrow is scheduled as the annual See You At The Pole gathering at schools around the country. Organizers describe the event on their website as: "a student-initiated, student organized, and student-led event. That means this is all about students meeting at their school flagpole to pray—for their school, friends teachers, government, and their nation. [It] is not a demonstration, political rally, nor a stand for or against anything." The website also offers advice on the rights of students to conduct these events before school hours begin, and the rights of adults to attend. Today's Ft. Myers (FL) News-Press carries an article on the background of SYATP and of the church-state issues surrounding it.
