Schools are not for displaying decorations. Schools are for teaching and learning. Like I said, that's why every single one of said kids has a home.

Schools display decorations regularly for halloween, thanksgiving etc. Are you suggesting there should be no decorations in schools? Strange.

Schools decorate for holidays and seasons all the time. Walk in any school in the fall and you'll see displays of autumn leaves falling from colorful trees. In winter you bulletin boards with snowmen and falling snow flakes.

Schools decorate. If a school wishes to decorate to celebrate a national holiday, it's no big deal.

I'm sure they have posters of Martin Luther King up for MLK Day.

Actually, I wasn't really addressing my post to you specifically. I was answering the silly quote from the article: "Officials said the school's superintendent will be meeting with parents to discuss their concerns and talk about what is the best way to represent all the different traditions during the holiday season."

This kind of superficial, artificial, imposed, made-up multiculturalism is a pet peeve of mine. This fruitcake actually wants others to think that we have all these "different traditions during the holiday season," one of which is the "holiday" which must remain nameless.

Of course, the ONLY "tradition" is Christmas the holiday which must remain nameless. But, we aren't allowed to think that. We must be programmed to circumvent the holiday which occurs on December 25 with other "holidays" which occur on December 25, (even if there aren't) any via Newthink.

It's scary that people this brainwashed are in charge of teaching children.

Good point. Look at the lesson the kids learned from this.
