You have a community problem there Bingo! Saying the pledge is common here and noone thinks twice about it. Admin are usually former teachers. Board members are "usually" businessmen with kids in school. Lots of ranchers and farmers on the local boards. Some members aren't business owners but are top shelf employees where they work. It appears to me that Mo just lives in an exceedingly liberal community that draws the worst of the worst. Or the conservatives that do live there aren't getting themselves in the right spots to make their stance relevant.

I live in an exceedingly Liberal State, And what is beginning to be a exceedingly Liberal Country. Tired of people stealing my money and then force feeding us what they want us to have. I fear MN will be the next Connecticut If we allow it to happen. Steal my money, then take my guns!

The ban was an over reaction to some students flying the confederate flag last year. Why didn't the students that were happy to fly that flag last year show up with it again? I do not support banning the confederate flag, makes it easy to identify dumbasses in northern states. Nice participation trophy for those in the south.

Ban the confederate flag. Tear down confederate statues. Keep wiping away history and maybe our country can just forget the civil war ever happened.
Until it happens again.
If burning the American flag is protected as free speech, flying the confederate flag should be protected as free speech.
I'm not a bigot. But I'm against banning the confederate flag.

Makes you wonder how far the left will go with this? Washington and Jefferson both owned slaves. Doesn't seem right to apply today's ethics to past eras. If you look at history slavery was prevalent in most counties.

I asked my son if they still say the Pledge of Allegiance in school. He said of course dad why wouldn't we. I knew I moved out of the metro for a reason.

Ah.... I thought it was removed in all of MN.
Good to hear someone has some sense.
