Are the other non-Catholic teachers employed by the school pretending to be Catholic by participating in the same events? Just because she was physically present when prayers were said, doesn't it doesn't mean she prayed. If I'm at a wake and present in the room when the priest comes in to lead the prayers, I bow my head out of respect but I don't pray. The same rule applies for funeral masses I attend. If she was required to attend masses with her class and she did so, she was merely fulfilling one of her job requirements.
