Read Katherine Stewart's The Good News Club for more in-depth on this. I'm not as bothered by them doing it in middle school and high school, but they're targeting grade schoolers, teaching them to proselytize their fellow students, and because it's the kids doing it to other kids, it's all legal. They stand just off campus as school lets out with candy and goodies which they use to encourage the kids to come to meetings. Again, because that aspect isn't done on school property, it's legal. These people are really slimey.
I don't agree with the supreme court decision allowing this. These groups aren't even really "student-led."

Schools are forced to sit back and watch these groups minister to children. Child proselytization should be restricted in public schools.
