She’s been put on administrative leave.

That didn’t take long.

“inclusive and culturally sensitive to all of our students”
Obviously not! The liberal mind is so clouded that it cannot see that this statement is what they are NOT doing. They are excluding students from a Christian background and being culturally insensitive to them too.

I’m willing to bet that no more than 5% of the kids have any idea of what they mean by “Jesus,” or “Christ.” Christmas, for most, is a fun time with no connection to any religious belief whatsoever. Most are Christians in name only.

The left largely wastes its time trying to de-Christianize the country. It’s already happened. No need to bow down and kiss the a$$ of the newly-arrived muzzies.

Liberty Counsel intervened, sending a letter to Elkhorn Public Schools warning them that the Christmas ban was unconstitutional.

“The ban violates the U.S. Constitution by showing hostility toward Christianity,” LC attorney Robert Mast wrote. “The principal appears to have conflated her own values and preferences with the law.”

The district “investigated” the matter and “determined that Principal Sinclair’s memorandum did not comply with Board Policy.”

“We are pleased that Elkhorn Public Schools promptly reversed Principal Jennifer Sinclair’s unconstitutional directive, and required compliance with the Constitution,” said Mat Staver, Founder, and Chairman of Liberty Counsel.

“The First Amendment does not require the elimination of Christmas,” Staver continued. Nothing prohibits public schools from teaching objectively about Christmas or other holidays with religious significance, from displaying religious and secular Christmas symbols side-by-side or singing sacred and secular Christmas songs together.”

He went on to say that Sinclair’s directive “was not based on ignorance of the law but hatred toward Christianity and Christmas. Principal Sinclair should issue an apology to her teachers and staff.”

Fascinating. What is the purpose of those? Are they venting methane from a septic system?

So what exactly is Sinclair allowing at the school? Prepare yourself. This is going to make your blood boil a bit:
...
Snowmen, snow women, snow people, snowflakes Gingerbread people

Well of course snowflakes are allowed. Otherwise this principal who gets triggered over candy canes would have to take December off.

The extraordinary aspect of the story is that such an irrational ‘thinker’ is allowed to be an educator.

Sinclair is the modern mom too. Her hubby is a “stay at home dad.” Interestingly, the principal she replaced at this school was named “Christ.”

Apparently just 13 years as a teacher I wonder why they even considered her?...........barely enough experience under her belt.
