At a monthly school board meeting we were led by the Pledge and then a prayer - Is this allowed?

No. The US Supreme Court has found that organized prayer in schools is not permitted. You should have objected if you were offended.
In the future, you should request that the board allow a moment of silence so that people can reflect or pray privately instead.
