George W. BushReligion is a personal, private matter and parents, not public school officials, should decide their children's religious training. We should not have teacher-led prayers in public schools, and school officials should never favor one religion over another, or favor religion over no religion (or vice versa).

The free exercise of faith is the fundamental right of every American, and that right doesn't stop at the schoolhouse door.
