The two cases most relating to school prayer are Engel v. Vitale (1962) andAbington Township School District v. Schempp (1963). The first case originated in NY and ruled that the school board could not require students to the recite a prayer they had written. Such required recitation was a form of state-mandated religion.The second case, filed by a Unitarian couple in Philadelphia, ruled that required school-sponsored reading of the Bible or the Lord's prayer was illegal.
Public institutions need to avoid any involvement with religious activity, even if it seems minor or harmless (Apex).

Engel v. Vitale began in the Union Free School District No. 9, in Hyde Park, New York, after parents of ten students objected to the New York Board of Regents' formal introduction of prayer into the schools and complained that directing the prayer to "Almighty God" was contradictory to their religious practices.Case Citation:Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421 (1962)
In Engel v. Vitale (1962), the plaintiff, Steven Engel, sought to challenge the constitutionality of a New York State law that encouraged a nondenominational prayer to be recited in public schools. Engel aimed to uphold the principle of separation of church and state, arguing that the prayer violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. Ultimately, he sought to prevent the state from promoting religious activities in public education to protect individual religious freedoms.
