Middle School in Virginia Bans Christmas Carols that Mention Jesus to be more "Inclusive"

Why is your protest vital?

Because Christmas carols with the name of Jesus were recently banned at Robious Middle School in Midlothian, Virginia.

NBC12 News reports:

"According to the teacher's email, after speaking with school administrators it was decided they would avoid singing anything of a direct sacred nature in order to be more sensitive to the increasing diverse population at the school."

David Allen, whose child attends the school, was informed that students will no longer sing Christmas carols that contain the word "Jesus."

Stunned by the news, Allen said: "I'm trying to rationalize how you can encourage diversity and yet be exclusionary in one specific area."

Please stand up for the Child Jesus.
Sign your peaceful protest to keep Christ in Christmas.

This school in this story is one that my wife and brother-in-law attended and my nieces went there as well.
It wasn’t always like this, either.

Chesterfield became a sanctuary county and suffered for it.

They need to think about the founders of our nation and what they would recommend.

When you sign up for the government’s “free” daycare, you take what they give you.

It is proper for a public school to do that. They must remain religiously neutral. It is fitting for Christian schools to have religious content.

It is the only way to meet the needs of a diverse collection of students.
