Are you going to wait until they cancel all our history?
(Man, I’ve got to get some oomph today! I need to write my Newwithviews column, which I forgot to do last week. But first this…)
The Stamford, Connecticut, school district has voted, 5-3, to remove the Columbus Day holiday from its school calendar (https://nypost.com/2024/01/29/news/connecticut-school-district-facing-backlash-after-stripping-veterans-day-columbus-day-from-holiday-calendar/). While they were at it, they also canceled Veterans Day.
The reason given was that the school year is too long, so let’s get rid of these two days off. The public is not happy with the school board’s decision. And that’s putting it mildly.
Well, folks, the ball’s in your court. Keep your kids home on Columbus Day–what’s the school board going to do then? Better yet–keep ’em home, period. Don’t let the teachers’ union and a pack of self-anointed “educators” turn them into good little brainless leftids.
They never seem to rest.
