Tennessee School District Bans The America Flag According to reports, a Tennessee school district has just prohibited students from flying flags, including Ole Glory, from their vehicles. The decision follows a dispute over the Confederate flag. Its not an unpatriotic act by any means, because we have a number of ways in which students do learn how to be patriotic and express American pride, Dickson County School District officials told a local Fox affiliate, clearly anticipating backlash for their actions. The school district preemptively issued a statement clarifying its stance after several media outlets reported that all flags were banned from campus. The district called those reports entirely inaccurate. The Flag is prominently displayed at every school in our county, the districts statement clarified. It is also displayed in many of our classrooms. All students in Dickson County are allowed to voluntarily participate in the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance each morning. We are very proud to have JROTC in both of our high schools, and we will continue to fly and respect the flag. What do you think of Tennessees decision?
