Actually, this principal is currently the recipient of some of the most viciously hateful screeds ever sent to an educator in New York City. It should be noted, however, that Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott confirms that students in Hawkins' school recite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing America, The Beautiful every day. The song does contain the lyrics, "God shed his grace on thee/And crowned thy good with brotherhood/from sea to shining sea".Apparently Hawkins' objection to the lyrics in God Bless The USA didn't prevent her from permitting America, The Beautiful to be sung in her classrooms. I don't, therefore, understand why there is such an uproar. However, I'm not even gonna try to defend this woman's scatterbrained policy on bathroom use by students. That's just loony. |
