Explanation

In Engel v. Vitale (1962), the Supreme Court ruled that public schools could not sponsor an official prayer, even if students were allowed to opt out. The government’s role in promoting the prayer violated the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause, which is part of freedom of religion. Therefore, the correct choice is “violated freedom of religion.”
