If a whole class of children gets up to recite the pledge, no child without a support system (like the Jehova's witnesses) is going to feel comfortable just standing there.

That might be a good reason not to have public school children recite it. I don't think its enough to make it an example of establishing religion. Something can be make people uncomfortable and be a very problematic practice, without being unconstitutional.
