Answer:

Yes, it violates the First Amendment's freedom of religion as it leads the event with a particular faith's belief regardless of the diversity of the school's pupils and the school is a public-funded establishment.

Explanation:

The First Amendment's freedom of religion refers to the right of all citizens to practice and follow any form of religion they wish to. This right secures a person from being persecuted for following a certain faith.

But in the given scenario of a public school leading a sporting event with a student-led prayer, this is a clear violation of this amendment. This is because a public school doesn't have any specific religion to adhere to, and that a practice or any act of adherence to a particular belief is a violation of the rights of the students who may be from a different faith.

Thus, this is a violation of the First Amendment.
