Yes, regrettably, there probably is some "fat" in every school day. However, it should never be filled with the promotion of sexual identity politics. That's not what the third grade is for.
How about the part you'd be willing to throw out to accommodate a course in patriotism?
Patriotism is not something taught in a course. It's learned and nurtured through courses in civics and history. But apparently you have no time for civics and history (what with promoting sexual identity politics and all).
Let the school authorities figure it out, schedulues are their job.
What absolutely jaw-dropping capitulation! I'm speechless. This is a public school. We -- the tax payers -- are the final authorities. You may want to wave your white flag of surrender, but I won't.
