Observation of a Minute of Silence
Oklahoma law requires the board of education of each school district ensure that all schools within the district observe approximately one minute of silence each day for the purpose of allowing each student, in the exercise of his or her individual choice, to reflect, meditate, pray, or engage in any other silent activity that does not interfere with, distract, or impede other students in the exercise of their individual choices.
TSAS observes this moment of silence daily. Students who wish to participate in voluntary prayer have the right to do so without bias or prejudice.
Complaints
Any complaints regarding the observance of the moment of silence or voluntary prayer should be directed to the Head of School.
