Most school administrators are not anti religion they are anti- getting sued and anti- controversey. They will see this as a way to avoid problems. If we do not do religous songs we can not be sued (even though they can not be sued for having them either). Since the the wheel with the loudest squeak gets the grease The parents who object to this new policy need to make way more noise then the intolerant person who objected to a medley of religous Christmas songs. I would also suggest they run a slate of candidates for the School Board. That will put the fear of God (pun intended) into the administrators and the current Board.
