As a compromise to the prayer in schools ban, many districts instituted “moments of silence.” The 1985 Supreme Court case of Wallace v. Jaffree addressed this issue. What was the Court’s ruling?

a. Moments of silence are fine as long as students are not coerced into participating. b. Moments of silence are an acceptable alternative to prayer in school since there is no coercion toward a certain religion. c. Moments of silence are unconstitutional because they are mandatory and are usually authorized in order to encourage religious prayers. d. The Court skirted the issue and left the matter to the discretion of each state’s courts. e. Moments of silence are acceptable if led by a student rather than a school official.
