Students don't get to vote on how bad their education can be. Nor, since the Constitution prohibits the government from making any law that would allow what you propose, can the students be given the choice of having the school violate the Constitution. Are you advocating a Constitutional amendment allowing the government to make laws regarding religion? (Think carefully about what that would mean to ALL the not-majority religions. Most religions would fight violently against such an amendment. Just look to Louisiana to see what might happen.)
