[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in 6th grade in 1990 in MCPS, my teacher offered a candy bar to anyone who could recite The Star Spangled Banner. I think only 2 other kids besides me could do it, and it was really only because I had been to so many Orioles games. Many other patriotic songs are taught in social studies in elementary school, just not the National Anthem. I think the Pledge of Allegiance fills th need for instilling students' daily dose of patriotism.[/quote] Elementary school in 1990? Sounds like it is the younger generation who is not learning the anthem.[/quote] Yes, I was born in 1978. Glad that is still part of the "younger generation."[/quote]
