Complaints Aired Over Ban on Teachers At "See You At the Pole"

The Carlisle (PA) Sentinel reported that at last Thursday's meeting of the Carlisle Area School Board, a group of parents and teachers attended to complain about the Board's decision to bar teachers from attending September's student-initiated "See You At the Pole" prayer event. District Solicitor Jim Flower has said the decision was based on a recent Third Circuit ruling involving New Jersey football coach Marcus Borden praying with his student team members.
