Its called the First Ammendment to the Constitution...
The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is also the first section of the Bill of Rights. It is the most important part of the U.S. Constitution, as it guarantees freedoms of religion, speech, writing and publishing, peaceful assembly, and the freedom to raise grievances with the Government. In addition, it requires that a wall of separation be maintained between church and state. It states the
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

But the school itself can not require/demand student particpation,nor can the school promote,endorse or make part of its cirriculum any religious activities.

Does state law or federal law have the final power?
The short answer is that the United States Constitution is the law of the land, and any law, including state law, that is not consistent with the US Constitution is superseded by the US Constitution. There is something called the Supremacy Clause, which means that all inconsistencies between federal and state law must be resolved in favor of federal law, but then the lawyers and courts argue whether the federal law in question was intended to supersede and preempt, or to just add to state law. Is the state law really and truly inconsistent, or just a little. :) If state law says you can manufacture WIDGET A, for example, and federal law says you cannot, then federal law will control, because that is a direct conflict. But if state law says you can manufacture Widget A, and federal law says you can manufacture Widgets A, B and C, but you must comply with certain requirements, or you must manufacture them all together but not individually, then state law is not superseded...it is just ... clarified a bit, if you get my meaning.
