Alabama Require Pledge of Allegiance and Allow Student-Led Prayer in Public Schools Amendment

Current assessment

Amendment 3 requires pledge and student-prayer policies but explicitly permits students to opt out. Tentative objection concerns constitutionalizing school ritual, not a claim of compulsory prayer.

What still needs an answer

• Check final policy and complaint provisions; avoid asserting the amendment is categorically constitutional or unconstitutional.
