Since when did an egg hunt have anything to do with Easter in the first place?
The “public school” is the Bus Ministry of the State Church of Humanism.
The “public school”, including the “charter school”, is BY FAR, the largest, most expensive, most subversive, and most destructive entitlement program in the country.
The “public school” is better understood as the “government school collective”.
It is silly to imagine that you can fix the public schools, because the very concept itself is collectivist.
It is hypocritical to submit your children to an authority with whom you fundamentally disagree. Children do not trust hypocrites, so this will undermine your own authority, let alone influence, with your children.
Any child that comes out of the government school collective with their moral compass and common sense intact does so in spite of the government school indoctrination, not because of it.

If you want to win the culture war, have lots of children (see my tagline) and homeschool them or form your own school cooperative with your church or synagogue and like-minded friends and relatives.
Nobody loves your children more than you do.
Nobody can teach your children better than you can.
Nobody knows your children better than you do.
Your children would love nothing better than to be taught by you, if you start doing so before they are corrupted by the government school collective.
If you have children, make whatever sacrifices you must to get them out of the public schools.
DO NOT FEED THE BEAST!
Especially not with your own children.
And DO NOT TAKE GOVERNMENT “EDUCATION” MONEY!
He that pays the piper calls the tune, and that’s especially true for any government entitlement program.
This doesn’t bother me. Bunnies and egg hunts have nothing to do with the resurrection of Christ anyway. Never have understood all that hubbub.
So what? Jesus doesn’t have anything to do with Easter Eggs anyway.
They can run, but they can’t hide from God. :)
Already? Wasn’t it just “festivus”?
My school never did anything involving Easter when I was growing up. Didn’t even get a day off.
They’re not trying to “secularize” society.
They’re not trying to “censor the religious references”.
They’re trying to erase anything to do with CHRISTIANITY from the public arena.
Mention of other religions is fine, even encouraged. But don’t you dare bring up anything about those evil CHRISTIANS!!!
The Catholic Church took pagan practices and made them religious and now the secularists are making them pagan again.
Ahhhh piss on the whole lot of ‘em. Have your own EASTER EGG hunt at your house - invite your kid’s friends and parents. Celebrate Easter away from the damn schools.
Why is the government involved/wasting money on even the secular observance of a religious festival?
