The Tennessee Senate has passed a bill that would allow coaches and teachers to worship on school grounds.

Senator Jim Summerville, Republican from Dickson, says his bill to OK teachers worshipping with students probably doesn’t break any new ground.

The current bill would now allow teachers to meet with students in events like a Fellowship of Christian Athletes function, but it must be held before, or after, school hours.

The Senate added an amendment to the bill, so it must return to the House before it can be signed by the governor.
