On September 17, 2003 The Citizens' Voice reported that "Charles Suppon, director of pupil services at Wyoming Valley West School District, Tuesday acknowledged the parents of one student attending the State Street Elementary Center in Larksville [WY] and the parents of one student attending the Chester Street Middle School in Kingston [WY], approached district officials and made the request. Suppon said it was decided to seek out 'a quiet place' where the students could gather and pray if they desired between 1 and 1:10 p.m. each day."
