Required?
The article infers that the prayer was required, but it was actually optional. This should be clarified because there is a significant difference.
Do you have a citation? I doubt it was optional. Either way, the point is that it was written, led, and endorsed by the school officials - an establishment of religion which is explicitly disallowed in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.

Frankfurter and White
The infobox states "Frankfurter and White took no part in the consideration or decision of the case." Does anyone have an idea why neither Frankfurter nor White was a part? The reasoning should be a part of the article, in my opinion, but not given undue weight.
