It begins… A Florida school not only banned Christmas but banned everything associated with Christmas including Christmas colors…
Because someone might be offended.

FOX Nation reported:

A school in Florida has not only banned Christmas – but everything associated with the Christian holiday.

Teachers at Heathrow Elementary School have been ordered to banish images of Santa Claus from classrooms – along with traditional Christmas colors like red and green.

“You can’t use red and green,” one outraged parent told WESH. “It’s ridiculous.”

The parent, who serves as a volunteer room mother, said she was recently given a list of guidelines that listed the holiday restrictions.

She said the basic theme of the letter was, “We don’t want to offend anyone who doesn’t believe in Santa Claus or the Christian beliefs.”

Well, there is a big Orlando Tea Party...

Well, from the school's web site, here is the address: 5715 Markham Woods Road
Lake Mary, Florida 32746
407-320-6850

It is north of Orlando, and very doable. We just would have to have a plan now, wouldn't we, and I still believe having some friends in the area could be quite helpful!

Wonder how far away it is. That is certainly a good thought. Wonder if we know anyone down that way that would set something up! This is totally outrageous. Let's look out for a small minority while affending a huge majority..........not exactly democratic (which the president seems to be SO in favor of for some things.

Seriously? Unbelievable. Sounds like there should be a Tea Party road trip to go CHRISTMAS caroling outside the school while wearing red and green clothes and have someone dress up like Santa!
