I agree.
Public schools aren't claiming that there is no God. Rather, they're setting an even playing field for everyone in regards to religion, to avoid tension and to honor the separation of church and state, by not teaching any religious or philosophical beliefs. Including Atheism. You can practice your religion in your own time, but like everything else, there is a time and place for worship. It just doesn't happen to be at school.
