Brunswick High School students were asked Tuesday to change out of clothes displaying a flag of the Confederacy because administrators found the insignia potentially disruptive, according to the school district.
This week is Spirit Week for Brunswick High, in which students wear an outfit matching a daily theme. Tuesday marked USA Day, in which students would wear patriotic colors.
An emailed newsletter from the school on Friday indicates USA Day is a chance for students to wear red, white and blue.
At least two students wore the Confederate symbol Tuesday, but those students were asked to change their clothes, district spokesman Michael Doerrer said. School administrators also confiscated a Confederate flag another student brought to school, Doerrer said.

ReplyDeleteKids are a bit smarter these days. They will not be conformed. Most of their parents teach them about what's right and wrong in this country. The days if conformity are over. The people are awaking.
