I wonder if something else is going on like it did not show Obama's inauguration in 2008.
The situation in Davidson County (Nashville) just north of Williamson County is very different. This is one of only two counties in the state that went for Hillary. The meltdown in Nashville schools after Nov 8 was something to behold.
My son is in a magnet high school there and I have concluded that the best we can hope for is that they simply do not show the inauguration. More likely is some sort of attempt to lead (force) the students to protest. I have instructed my son in the principles of passive resistance and taught him the example of the Nashville sit-ins in the early 1960s.
We shall overcome this Bull Conner-Democrat tyranny!
situation may be more complicated than the original story, at least if press releases of Williamson and Davidson Cunty are to be believed: http://www.newschannel5.com/news/parents-want-inauguration-shown-in-classrooms
When my children went to school everything of interest was shown to them..
I still remember my 6 yo daughter coming home to tell me that they saw the shuttle blow up...
In those days it was a big thing for the kids to have their own in school election ...for every president...
then they got to watch the inauguration...
a lot of this is about denying the children of today USA history and civics...WWI was started because OF the threat to nationalism...we just sit back and wait to be asked “what size burka ???”
Still they did get to sing the MMMMM song...
Oh but Obama was king-for-life and walked on water ...
a hero of the 1st water...
so perfected in his abilities that they knew they could safely give him a Peace Prize and he would perform later...
well much later...well he will...
Meanwhile the most important man in their country, and the Free World, our new leader, is not to be acknowledged by the ones who teach them history and social studies and current events ???
What is considered educational if the occasion of the swearing in ceremony for their incoming president of the United States is to be blocked of as though it were a pornographic or violent episode ???
These so called “educators” are not fit or qualified to teach American children...
