This is what local government is supposed to contest.

If they are paying to rent the facilities at going market rates, and don't leave any religious stuff there in the school. It might be a way for schools to raise money.

If they are able to use the facilities for free or below market rates, than I have a problem with it. Or if they say, put up a permanent cross or something like that that remained there during the school week, I'd have a really big problem with it.

Great discussion...I think the practice is a bunch of Baloney. I’m not even sure if they pay!

sounds like a good way for schools to raise revenue with facilities that they have to pay for but can't use on the weekends. I doubt they turn a profit on it but at least they can mitigate cost a bit.

Sounds unconstitutional from here, though I know some sorry states are constantly blurring the line of separation…

When my children were in grade school a religious teacher, actually one they both had, encouraged and welcomed an aggressive youth indoctrination group into our public school during lunch recesses to ‘reenact bible stories’ for those not choosing to go outside.

I met with the teacher, principal and our ‘parents in education’ (PIE) group. It stopped. But there’s not an activist Atheist in every community ready to redraw and defend that line...

I have no problem with facilities use. They probably pay rent to do that.

Might as well use the facilities for something. As long as they're paying rent
