The parents need to step up bring legal action and go after the school board and the superintendent. These are the front lines

I went to high school in Montgomery County many, many years ago. During the Jewish holidays, there were so few of us left in school, there was no point trying to teach anything. Instead, the teachers just told stories. I’m not kidding.

No, it’s just a spineless retreat by people who believe in nothing. If you and I sat down this weekend and invented a religion, Montgomery County would add it to the list by spring.

I am divided on this one. On the down side, the names of Jewish and Christian holidays have been removed, but, on the up side, even leftist Monkey County is not recognizing a moHAMhead death cult day.
