A Spring Hill middle school, located outside of Nashville, faces criticism after school principal, Mike Kinnard, led students in prayer during a graduation ceremony in May.
The Freedom From Religion Foundation, an organization that protects the separation of church and state, says this is the second time Kinnard has been involved in an incident like this after he also led students in prayer at a graduation ceremony in 2023.
School Superintendent, Lisa Ventura, told the FFRF that she had spoken to Kinnard privately about the incident and that school staff would receive more training to prevent these incidents.
