The American Civil Liberties Union is suing the Santa Rosa County School District over prayers at graduation ceremonies and other school events.
The ACLU filed the federal lawsuit Wednesday on behalf of two Pace High School students. The lawsuit claims that school administrators and teachers mix their public duties with their religious beliefs by leading students in prayers and Bible readings.
