In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that a high school football coach has the First Amendment right to pray on the field after games.
A former public high school football coach in Washington state who famously lost his job for leading prayers on the field after games will be reinstated by the spring of next year, court documents show.
A spokeswoman for the school district said there are "areas where there are still questions" between the parties as to how Kennedy's post-game prayers will be accommodated consistent with the Supreme Court ruling. "This is a right for everybody. It doesn't matter if you're this religion or that religion or have no faith whatsoever," Kennedy told ABC News during an interview earlier this year. "Everybody has the same rights in America."
Kennedy had routinely prayed on the field after games for more than seven years, attracting varying levels of participation from students. He said the ritual typically lasted less than a minute.
