Would this not cause isolation or maybe even ostracism of pacifist students or those who have their own reasons for disagreeing with the pledge of allegiance? And this doesn't take into account other forms of patriotism; how would you categorize those who refuse to express support for what they believe to be wrong action on the part of their government? <br />How could anyone imply that a student who does not accept a flag-waving variety of patriotism has not learned enough about how to be a good person?carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06194670422064828258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15193762.post-42212152321751237312010-11-12T11:19:25.428-06:002010-11-12T11:19:25.428-06:00Wow!

I thought it was nice.<br /><br />BUT...we have so few assemblies that I don't think the students truly knew how to act during a serious one. Plus, I think maybe we need more patriotism at our school. Ahem...<i>patriotism</i> for this country.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your school's celebration. It's something to aspire to!HappyChyckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00586840416488114845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15193762.post-63430543045110647132010-11-11T14:15:01.620-06:002010-11-11T14:15:01.620-06:00Wow, that is wonderful.

My school, nay, my entire district, repeatedly fails to do anything like this.

My 4th-5th grade special education students have practiced like crazy and will be doing a short presentation in front of the school. They have gone above and beyond my expectations for them, and many have memorized their lines. Keep your fingers crossed that they don't get stage fright tomorrow!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03597214766057785335noreply@blogger.com
