[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't realize how nutty liberal schools have become.  A county or two further out and kids are not allowed to act like that from other kids. Everyone stands in our school!! Not a choice !![/quote]

So you think it's good that schools are willfully breaking the law?

I can't believe how ignorant people are in today's world (you in particular) when you have all of the information at your fingertips. [/quote]

Years ago, I taught a Jehovah's Witness in first grade.  The principal said he should stand in respect for other kids or leave the room.  He was not required to say the pledge.  His choice.

[b]This principal was big on respect.  Teachers were not to drink anything (including coffee) in front of the kids.  She said, you don't eat in front of guests in your home and you don't do it at school--unless you offer them something, as well.[/b]

Doesn't FCPS call for respect for others?  Standing the pledge is showing respect for others.  Period.[/quote]

What?! This part, about not drinking anything in front of kids, is absurd. I can guarantee you that the administration is drinking coffee, tea, soda, smoothies, etc. in their offices. But teachers, who are doing the hard work, can't? That's absurd! [/quote]
