Longing for the Sacred in Schools: A Conversation with Nel Noddings.

Halford, Joan Montgomery

Educational Leadership, v56 n4 p28-32 Dec-Jan 1998-1999

The First Amendment does not forbid teaching about religion as part of our cultural heritage. Spirituality requires no institutional affiliation. Sacred music and art should be restored to schools.
