The school is backing down and letting the America Pride dance happen, but it's still being PC about the whole thing, as Starnes points out.

“Inclusivity” sure does leave out a lot of people.

Maybe there was rumblings of recall petitions being circulated to remove members of the school board unless they told the superintendent and principal to back down?

Since the educrats are obviously so embarrassed about the student decision, then maybe they ought to get their salaries paid in pesos.

Principal Laura Lasa told me the April 10th dance had never been canceled. They merely wanted to dialogue with students about inclusivity. "We were in a conversation with the kids about how the theme would be presented so that we could make sure that it was inclusive to all students, Lasa said. they took that as being told they could not. Principal Laura Lasa manages her stress by smiling when she lies. Hillary taught her how.

How cute.
The principal is a retro-hippie chick who thinks the United States is an evil place.
Just too cute.

“The principal acted stupidly”.
Apparently even in a liberal utopia like Lexington there are still a few patriots left and the principal got some pushback.

Just wondering: How many students are non-citizens? If the school has non-citizens in the school, how did they end up in the United States and in an American school?
To me, if the non-citizen students and their families are on the legal path to citizenship, then they should be enthusiastic to take part in such a celebration in their new adopted country.

For what it is worth: the wife and visited Lexington in September on a school day. At 10 AM the streets were flooded with school kids wandering around, going into shops and eateries. No one, including parents of kids we asked, had any idea why. It wasn’t a holiday. Nobody in town seemed to know why their kids weren’t inside the schools they sent them to earlier in the AM.

Shoveling SH*T at the masses again. Liberals are incapable of anything resembling accountability for their own ignorant actions.

How could a theme of American pride not be inclusive of the students who would be attending? Does someone plan on bringing bus loads of foreign students to the dance?

The use of the word “dialog” pretty much sums up the idiocy of the faculty.
Fire their little left wing as...er...Obamaholes and hire some teachers who actually know their history.
To: Talisker
Considering her salary is undoubtedly well into six figures, she might want to consider shopping for clothes somewhere other than Kmart.
