WELLESLEY, Mass — In a letter to parents and students, Wellesley High School said they canceled Friday’s “USA” theme as a part of spirit week to avoid controversy and politicization.

Spirit Week at Wellesley High is meant to unify the school ahead of their Thanksgiving football game. Students dress up and match each day’s theme.

Some themes this week included Throwback Thursday and Wild West Wednesday.

Olivia Spagnuolo is a member of the school’s Student Unification Program. Each year, the group comes up with daily themes. Their ‘USA Day’ theme was quickly shut down.

Ok - that’s it. It’s time to fire these red communists once and for all and ship them to China where they’re free to be as anti-USA as they want.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Hypocrites politicize everything. A street name, park name or statue linked to someone not politically correct over 100 years ago. And everything else they can link to LGBTQ+, abortion rights or Israel or something. Music, movies, books.

Patriotism really started in Massachusetts. Now it is continuing its 20th century tradition of Treason and Marxism with a touch of Islamic extremism tossed in for shits and grins.

People and alumni - Not one RED cent for these cowards and traitors!!

I recently attended an event at my granddaughter’s middle school in St. Charles, Missouri, that was inspiring, uplifting, and gives me hope for the future of our country.

Students were asked to invite their parents and grandparents who were veterans.

The principal gave opening remarks, the school choir sang the National Anthem, we said the Pledge of Allegiance, and the school band performed the Armed Services Theme Songs Medley, inviting veterans to stand when their theme song was played.

Then a veteran gave an inspirational talk to the students, describing his experience when he was in the military and how much it meant to him.

After the event, we were invited to parade through the school with our children/grandchildren who invited us. As we walked through the halls, students and school staff standing along the sides of the halls were cheering and applauding us.
