My kids have attended exactly 5 different FCPS schools in the last 10 years.
They all played the national anthem at virtually every major function and event. I was at one of the kids middle schools just this week for an awards ceremony and guess what - the national anthem was sung and they actually had a high school junior ROTC color guard there for the anthem. And this is a majority minority school.
Now it may be that not all schools do play the national anthem before a pep rally but that's no big deal imo. They play the national anthem before EVERY sporting event. I think you are making a bit much out of nothing. Why don't you politely ask the principal if they can re-introduce the national anthem at pep rallies?
Why not light a candle instead of cursing the darkness?
