Well, their parents did choose to send them to a Christian school.

...yes, and?

Presumably that means they want their kids exposed to Christian values and Christian services.

And they are exposed. But if the kids are actually not Christian, recognizing that seems to me an entirely reasonable thing to do. And by the time kids want to hold their own religious services (presumably "kids" are teenagers at this point), the wishes of parents matter less.
