Aliens shouldn’t have to recite the pledge, but they should be required to stand respectfully while it is being recited.

BINGO

Plymouth? What a great place to be from having spent most of my life there and where most of family choses to live, four generations now. Only a matter of time before outsiders have to crap on the place like everywhere else in America. I have a couple of texts out, if I hear anything notable I will post on this thread.

Likely just some outsider money group stirring up chit.

"It was traumatizing, it hurt, and I know she could do that to other people," said Danielle.

Show the fragile little sow the body can footage taken from the Oct 7 savages who put a live baby in an oven then set it to broil in front of the parents who were tied to together and tortured. Let's then see how "traumatized" and hurt she becomes.

That teacher is correct.

IIRC Teddy Roosevelt said “We can have no hyphenated citizens you are either an American or your not.”

“...an environment where all students, staff, and community members feel safe, respected, and valued.”
That would be here, in the United States of America. If you or your parents (which is where this is coming from) don’t recognize it, be grateful and show respect for it, then the teacher is right.

These IDIOT journalists think this is a bad thing.

When I grew up 8 graders were not national news.....................

When I was in elementary school, one of my fellow classmates was a Jehovah's Witness. He stood for the Pledge of Allegiance, but remained silent. No one made a fuss...that was 60+ years ago.

I'm on the teacher's side as well.

Actually, it won’t matter. The way the hamas animals act is to hide behind their “own” gazans’ kiddies while shooting at Israeli citizens.
So, dead either way.

[Whatever Works]

The teacher was correct, but I am amazed she didn’t get fired for saying it. Now reverse the situation and put an American in the 8th grader’s country..... What would the result have been?

[Redleg Duke]

Damned right! If you are not going to assimilate, don’t bother coming!

If the parents really want to support the Muslim culture why are they allowing their daughter to attend school?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Imagine how many little AMERICAN kids ran from school sobbing and crying when they were told that their daddy or mommy was killed in Iraq or Afghanistan.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Sorry Jake. It’s your daughter that needs to be removed. The other children are learning from the teacher, not your little RAT daughter.

"Since you live in this country and enjoy its freedom, if you don’t like it, you should go back to [your] country."

Agree.

Also ... Abolish government schools. In a private school, this is no longer a First Amendment matter.

[Drew68]

According to the ACRL, Danielle's story is a direct violation of her First Amendment right

The teacher also has First Amendment rights.

[NorthMountain]

Allegiance to a piece of cloth is foolish

" ... and to the Republic for which it stands ... "

It is possible to revere the Nation and not believe in God

And that has gotten us to where we are today: A godless, splintered "nation".

[PhiloBedo]

He’s not wrong

[GingisK]

It needs better wording. As it is, it is stupid.

“If the parents really want to support the Muslim culture why are they allowing their daughter to attend school?”

I imagine some Muslims are like what we call “cafeteria Catholics“, those who pick and choose which rules they will follow.
