It is good
Answer:
I think no one can stop you from praying anywhere you chose.
Prayer is "spiritual" -- intimate, personal, private and one-on-one between you and God. It's essentially virtually undetectable, unless a person chooses to make a public spectacle of it.
"...when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, THAT THEY MAY BE SEEN OF OTHER MEN. Verily I say unto you, THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD." (Matt.6:5)
For government institutions [like public schools] to try to spotlight prayer as a "group activity" in a nation that recognizes thousands of diverse gods like trees, cows, men and any other of creation's inhabitants... the question becomes: "Which god do we pray to, today?" And that can be disconcerting and offensive to many.
Group-orchestrated prayer in school is a mockery of prayer... and so much vanity.
Personal and private inward prayer in school, at home, walking down the street, or anywhere else one may be, is no one's business but the one praying... and no one else needs to even be aware that it's going on.
"Pray without ceasing." (I Thess.5:17)
