Patriotic teenagers in the birthplace of the American Revolution held their ground and fought back attempts by school administrators to cancel an “American Pride” dance on April 10 and replace it with a more inclusive event.
(snip)
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.”
(snip)
Over the weekend, Lasa said administrators listened carefully to the feedback they received and on Monday, March 23 they decided to let the kids stick with the “American Pride” theme.
“We’re supporting that student decision,” the principal told me.
Notice how she phrased that – the “student” decision?
“We’re going forward with supporting their theme of American Pride,” she added.
Again, notice the emphasis on “their” theme? It’s not the school’s theme. It’s the students’ theme. Heaven forbid the administrators be caught trying to promote American patriotism.

There is no reason it can not be American Pride with people of all (legal) origins represented. (Spain, England, Japan, Italy, Swedish, Danish, Canadian, etc) everyone who came from everywhere to make the USA a permanent home.
Just one more left wing lying sack of s**t.
Helloooooo. No need to insult K Mart.
What could possibly be more inclusive than “American”?
They should all be fired anyway for cancelling the dance in the first place. I don’t care if they were forced to let it go on as planned.
Come bathed in the Navy flag, kids.
Don’t tread....
It's difficult to find a teacher who doesn't think they aren't paid nearly enough.
They all think they're as poor as church mice.
