The First Amendment to the United States Constitution brings the Free Exercise Clause, in which grants all citizens the right of freedom of religion. Therefore, one can interpret that it is allowed for anyone to organize prayers due to this freedom of religion.

However, the First Amendment also brings the Establishment Clause, in which says the Congress should not make laws respecting an establishment of religion nor prohibit the free exercise of it.

Both clauses conflict because on the one hand, citizens are allowed to manifest their religion, and on the other hand the government can not manifest support to any religion.

Therefore, organizing prayer session in a public school can harm the Establishment Clause that prohibits the state of supporting religions, since a public schools are financed by the government.

Explanation:

The Siege of Petersburg, Siege of Petersburg, Campaign of Petersburg, or also Campaign of Richmond-Petersburg was a prolonged military conflict during the Civil War that took place around Petersburg, Virginia, from June 9, 1864 until April 3, 1865. Although the campaign is generally known as "Petersburg Siege" it was not really a classic military siege in which a city is surrounded and all its sources of supply are interrupted, and military actions are not they found themselves limited only against the city of Petersburg.

After nearly ten months of siege, the federal victory at Fort Stedman on March 25, 1865, was a devastating blow to the Confederate army, which was weakened by defections, disease and shortages. The federal army outnumbered the Confederates by more than double. On April 1 the Confederates were defeated at the Battle of Five Forks, on April 2 the Union advanced towards the city initiating the Third Battle of Petersburg and finally, at dawn on April 3 the city of Petersburg was surrendered.
