Most major religions in the world involve prayer in one way or another in their rituals. Although in many cases the act of prayer is ritualized and must be followed through a sometimes strict sequence of actions (even going as far as restricting who may pray), other religions, mainly the Abrahamic religions, teach that prayer can be done spontaneously by anyone at any moment.

There are plenty of times when kids should be able to pray, Muslim kids might want to pray 5 times a day. should there be 5 quiet periods in school?

I say no but if ALL religions can practice their prayer and the faculty does not enforce only one kind of religion and keeps children from telling other children that their religion is wrong/bad and as long as it does not become part of the actual education then that MIGHT be OK.

No, Sunday is your day for brainwashing the children. Keep it that way.

Mandatory prayer at school shouldn't even be contemplated. If kids WANT to pray at school by their own choice, then they can spend recess on their knees instead of having fun and getting exercise like all the other kids.
