Religious symbols in classrooms

Is a pentacle allowed to express cultural identity? What other symbols are permitted in public schools and when is that line crossed?

I used the loophole argument against my Christian professor, the fact is Christianity influenced our culture, but what's the first thing you remind when you see a cross? Jesus Christ, AKA the Messiah of Christianity, the cultural argument sounded like bullshit and it's depressing seeing it coming from a court composed by qualified judges that should satisfy the principle of impartiality.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
