[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got an official answer from the teacher: Grinch and Frosty are out: they were too Christmassy - Grinch stole Christmas and poor Frosty... I am not sure what was wrong with the snowman, something about decorations. 
Instead of those 2 - we will listen to 2 patriotic songs on the 24th! I think the other songs passed the censorship. [/quote]

That's really really obnoxious.  Did someone actually complain or did the administration just decide this on their own?  [/quote]

Reminds me of the time our whole International Day Fair was canceled, after the teachers and students put tons of time into it, because the poster that went out to parents had some clipart of kids on it and the kids appeared to have "white features," and some parent complained and accused the principal of racism.  The parent in question?  Blond, blue-eyed, as white as you can get.  And the people most negatively affected?  All the non-white families who had been planning displays, dance routines, etc.  [/quote]
