100% agree, schools should stick to the basics. US and State flags, no drama, no controversies.

[WickedWest]

This should be at ALL schools. The United States flag represents US ALL!

If you allow a pride flag you have to allow a multitude of flags, it won’t end.

[kelleywyskiel]

Lawsuit? Because they banned the flags except state and national? You’re not being targeted attacked or shunned, it’s one if hundreds of friggin flag possibilities.
This is stupid.

I am a moderate Democrat, including to conservativism, I do agree with the school board. The only flags they should be flying is the American flag and the state flag that’s all you need.

Kudos to the Sudol Glen school board!!

No need to replace the American flag 🇺🇸 It represents EVERYONE.

[markreeves]

Those are the only flags that should be flying on that district's flagpoles !

[kmarch]

I absolutely agree with this. If you let one group put up their flag then every group that has a flag will want to put one up. It's not discrimination either. It would be if they let them fly the gay flag but not any other group's flags.

People get annoyed by Pride everything being shoved down the throats of people.

[professorsc]

Hopefully we will see more and more of these good decisions. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[aaronclawson]

Sad part is they're mad because they're not catering to them this time

[aaronclawson]

It's about time they need to do it at every school in the nation immediately

Flying a non-government flag on government property might actually be illegal under "misuse of position and government resources". idk about California, but for federal government its covered in 5CFR 2635.702 through .705

[DirtyRedMuzik]

This is great news for the children and parents!

[Lucinda_Jackson]

That should be the rule for ALL schools. No flags except US and state.

[defund-the-media]

The American flag and state flag sre the only 2 you should see on campus

[andrewsmithusa]

Many gays and lesbians do not want this flag on school property either. Also, the older man was right when he said "the American flag already represents inclusivity".

[suziecreamcheese]

A student’s sexuality doesn’t belong at school. That is private.

[Deetroiter]

Half of those people in the room are the ones who cry that the American flag is 'just a flag'...How's it feel to have the favor returned? Want to fly it, go fly it on your own time at your own house. Great job, Sunol GUSD!
