The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is asking a federal court to stop graduation prayers at a Florida high school.
The ACLU claims Santa Rosa County schools promote prayer and religious teachings through "overt" and "subtle" coercion.
"The ACLU continually mis-labels schools' respect and allowance for the religious beliefs of its students as 'coercion,' or its latest favorite term 'subtle coercion,' said Bruce Hausknecht, judicial analyst for Focus on the Family Action. "There's a lot of heat and light in the ACLU's lawsuit, but very little evidence of coercion by the school."
