Sadly I'm not surprised. That sure is a hunk of bullshit though!

I agree they should Ban the Pledge.
While they are at it, remove sex education, ESL, school lunches, same sex indoctrination , ZERO TOLERANCE , ban on firearms safety, SPORTS etc. ALL these programs do is bloat the system, raise taxes etc.

In today's PC non-competitive, each side gets a point, does sports still have a legit place within the education system. THE INSURANCE COVERAGE alone must be costing kids who want to learn , access to books, and equipment that could future their education.
ESL,, SPEAK THE COUNTRY'S YOU RESIDE IN LANGUAGE, OR LEARN IT BEFORE YOU ILLEGALLY RELOCATE. Same for everything else.
THE SCHOOLS should EDUCATE, not pander or coddle, it's students and whiny useless selfish parents.

Your kids might like it when they get into a better college or get an extra 10 grand a year at a job because they speak two languages though...

Seriously? The benefits to the brain of learning a second language, any language, are well documented. My kids will be learning Latin this year, and we don't live anywhere near Latin American.

HE'S talking mandatory spanish because 50% [ easy] are unable to SPEAK ENGLISH. SO the education system insist the country where English is the primary language ( for now) students learn a different one. Because assimilating in to American culture will never happen.

Myself ,ANY opportunity to learn another language is beneficial in many ways. However don't do it for PC reasons.

And, sadly, their fluency in Latin won't do squat for them if they do move to Latin America...
