Frankly, the idea of two entirely separate school systems is outdated and unnecessary in my opinion. We should be joining them together and leaving it at that.

If the public school would add religious sections to the curriculum I would be all for it. Even at a young age kids should be learning about other religions. Keep it fact based rather than dogmatic. To me it seems that the public solution is to eliminate all religion rather than accomodate religion. Instead of prayer to start the day there should be an opportunity for quiet reflection. The lack of any spirtuality in the public system hurts its curriculim.
