Students and parents at a Colorado high school are outraged after administrators turned down their request for a spirit week day honoring America because it might offend non-Americans.
?They said they didn?t want to offend anyone from other countries or immigrants,? a 16-year-old member of the student council told me. ?They just really did not want to make anyone feel uncomfortable.?
The student council at Fort Collins High School had proposed having a day to celebrate the United States during next week?s Winter Spirit Week. The young people pitched ??Merica Monday? ? and invited their classmates to dress in patriotic colors. Their proposal was promptly shot down by administrators.
