Sanity Wins: School Tosses Principal’s Ban on Santa, Pledge of Allegiance
RUSH: Well, somebody was sane, somebody had some common sense. A New York public school, what was it -- ah, it doesn't say here where I can easily find out. The public school yesterday that banned Thanksgiving, banned Christmas, banned Santa Claus, banned Christmas trees, banned Thanksgiving, Pledge of Allegiance, they told the teacher, the principal, whatever, to take a hike.
"Sanity -- and Santa -- have been restored at a Brooklyn public elementary school where St. Nick was banned, the Pledge of Allegiance was dropped and Thanksgiving was replaced with a 'harvest festival.' The good news arrived at PS 169 in Sunset Park on Monday morning, a day after The Post exposed the bizarre PC extremism of Principal Eujin Jaela Kim.
"District 15 Superintendent Anita Skop stormed in the front door at 9:50 a.m., and minutes later, two fifth-grade boys were brought to the main office to lead a recital over the public address system of the Pledge of Allegiance, teachers told The Post. As The Post reported on Sunday, the pledge hadn’t been said over the loudspeakers since the beginning of the school year. Kim, 33, became principal in May 2014.
"Santa Claus is now reinstated at the school, and Department of Education officials said on Monday that the Pledge of Allegiance will be recited over the PA system every morning, in response to concerns from the community."
Until they try this again. Well, that's the thing about the left. You think they're gonna end with this? They'll come back and they will do everything they can to reinstitute this, because this is who they are. This is what the multicultural curriculum is. And, believe me, this is not the only school where this kind of stuff is happening. It may not be school-wide, but I guarantee you you've got teachers who are telling their students what a bunch of evil murderers the Pilgrims were and how Santa Claus is just an old fat white guy from ancient Christendom that has no place in America in 2015. And that the country doesn't deserve to have allegiance pleaded to it because this country's rotten to the core.
