A high school student says when his mother came to pick him up in his truck that was flying an American flag, a staff member told them it wasnt allowed to be flown on school property.
Now multiple students at Mount Zion High School in Carrolton are standing behind him and flying flags on their cars.

I believe it’s called The First Navy Jack.
Or the Gadson Flag.
Someone mentioned that earlier. I think that makes the most direct statement about the tyranny involved.
Don’t forget to fly the Christian flag and Star of David.
Exactly. I long ago took down my US flag. I’m waiting for an American in the WH before I put it back up.
(I’d also consider flying it, at least for a short while, if any major 0vomit administration officials go to jail. If 0vomit himself goes to jail, I’ll by flags for everyone on my block!)
While they’re working on grammar for the students, they could send the staff member that wrote the original statement about a “safe, learning environment” in for a brush-up on punctuation. The comma is unnecessary because safe is a modifier for learning. If it is supposed to be a series, then the proper use is “safe and learning environment” since it is a series of two items.
Do you keep a Georgia ping list?
If so, please add me to it.

Throw him in a van; drop him in Iraq. Gotta start somewhere.
BTTT like a flagpole!!!
Where was this exactly?
Never mind. It was in Georgia.
What is the matter with those people? Don’t they have enough to do without harassing students about innocuous items on vehicles?
Indeed. Educators spend so much time on ancillary issues they miss out on the basics.
WSB is in Atlanta.
The initials stand for Welcome South Brother.
The really need to identify the staffer that did this. I’m betting he/she is new and recently graduated from a University of Indoctrination. Or, a member of one of the protected classes.
Tell the staff members to go eff the themselves.
Dare them to call the cops.

I’d vote for Gadsden.
About The School
Mount Zion School History
Education in the Mount Zion Community has a long and interesting history. In 1877 James Mitchell was an agent of the Georgia Methodist Episcopal Conference Education Association. There was very little money for public education, especially in the rural areas, because the South was still suffering the ravages of the Civil War and Reconstruction. Dr. Mitchell worked to convince the Methodist Conference that it should offer the rural youth of Georgia an opportunity to attend school nine months a year. The conference voted to work toward opening nine schools throughout the state, but the exact locations of the schools were undecided. It is fortunate that at this point Dr. Mitchell was scheduled to preach at Mount Zion, one of the smallest churches of the Georgia Methodist Episcopal Conference. He was so favorably impressed with the friendliness, earnestness and dedication of the adult congregation and the fine group of young children present that he immediately began working to convince the conference to sponsor a school at the small community of Mount Zion. The proposed school would be operated on the stock plan with the Methodist Conference holding controlling stock and local citizens purchasing stock to make it financially feasible to open a school. Five acres of land were donated by Mr. Joseph Entrekin, and the local citizens gave their time, talent and hard-earned money to construct the first building of Mount Zion Seminary. This building had three rooms.
The dreams of the Mount Zion citizens and Dr. Mitchell became a reality in December 1880 when Mount Zion Seminary opened its doors for its first semester with sixty students and two teachers. The goal of Mount Zion Seminary was to educate youth academically, spiritually and socially. Establishing and operating a school on the basis of funds obtained from the sale of school stock, small tuition fees, and donations was hazardous to say the least. Despite these uncertainties, Mount Zion Seminary prospered. Only two of the nine schools established by the Georgia Methodist Episcopal Conference had survived to the turn of the century—Mount Zion and the school at Demorest, Georgia. By this time, enrollment at Mount Zion Seminary had increased to one hundred students and additional buildings had been added...

The only problem with that solution is that this involves school property.
People need to stand up to this tyranny.
Unless there’s a statute or ordinance on the books banning American flags on school grounds this idiot district doesn’t have a leg to stand on
