Trump administration tells schools they can't stop teachers or students praying
The US Education Department is sending out memos to school leaders telling them that they cannot block students or teachers from praying in public.
The plans were revealed on the same day as President Donald Trump welcomed to the Oval Office a group of Christian, Jewish and Muslim students who have experienced discrimination in schools.
They met the US President to mark National Religious Freedom Day on Thursday.
In an announcement, the White House said that the Trump administration was "taking action to further safeguard students' constitutionally protected right to pray in school"....
