In Engel v. Vitale (1962), the plaintiff, Steven Engel, sought to challenge the constitutionality of a New York State law that encouraged a nondenominational prayer to be recited in public schools. Engel aimed to uphold the principle of separation of church and state, arguing that the prayer violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. Ultimately, he sought to prevent the state from promoting religious activities in public education to protect individual religious freedoms.
