UPDATE IN OP -Cheerleaders put on probation for taking pics with President Trump banner

The North Stanly High School cheerleaders have been wrongly put on probation by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association for the rest of the football season because of holding up a Trump banner before a home game on 8-30-2019,” an event page supporting the students reads. “Please come out and help me show the school and the NCHSAA that freedom of speech is not dead. Please bring all your Trump and MAGA gear and lets throw our support behind the North Stanly High School cheerleaders.”


from link in OP

this was mentioned in earlier threads, I know. For those that did not see it, or see the importance, posting again.

also to follow up.

the importance is that these students, some of whom may be voting age, have not fallen for

the climate angst,
the gender juujuu,
the general idiocy of the left.

Hooray!

is the school district strictly non-political, yes or no?

can this be proven one way or other?

you do deserve a better answer.... the school district is certainly guilty of politics in the classroom, unless it has the amazing distinction of being the only leftist-free district in the country


This is hard to prove. There are cameras in hallways, but mostly NOT in classrooms and lavatories.

which is why school fights tend to be in classrooms and bathrooms/locker rooms.

thanks for the bump!

Let's reverse the clock 4yrs...

Had this happened during Obama's reign, would the consequence have been the same? Would there have even BEEN a consequence?

Let's skip forward to today...

Had they stood in front of say a Kamala Harris or Ilhan Omar or Occasional Cortex banner would anyone have even batted an eye?

Double-standards. Hypocrites. And I don't know about the rest of y'all but I've just about had enough of it.

The community should rename the school TRUMP High School.

:bf133:

I'm for it!

True^^^

For their part, officials from the Stanly County Board of Education insisted that they were not attempting to curtail their students’ freedom of speech, only ensure they did not engage in anything resembling a political campaign while wearing their official school uniforms because the school uses public funds.

“This policy does not prohibit students from speaking their minds or engaging in protected First Amendment activities,” district officials said in a release that came out Monday. “Because the cheerleaders were in uniform and were acting as representatives of the school, the display of the sign could be perceived as the school or school system endorsing a political campaign.”

Sez the district....




does this district go along with leftist politics in regards to sports teams ?


seems like a yes




from a Tweet at link:


NC Conservatives
last Saturday.
Cheerleaders at North Stanly high school Stanly County NC were put on probation for the rest of the football season for for holding a TRUMP 2020 banner! People said it made them feel “uncomfortable” but this High School Athletics Association is the same nonprofit that just voted to allow boys access to girls athletic teams. They have an agenda and it’s bad for our students. Come out & show support for these kids expressing their 1st amendment rights!!

..."Neither Stanly County Schools nor North Stanly High School
disciplined the cheerleaders for this action," a spokesperson
from Stanly County Schools told CBS News via email."...

..." the only action Stanly County Schools has taken is to ask
the cheerleaders not to display the sign again."

..."The terms of the probation were not initially defined, and
Stanly County School District said it asked NCHSAA for
additional information.

In an emailed statement to CBS News on Tuesday, NCHSAA
Commissioner Que Tucker clarified the terms of the probation,
saying it is not a punishment.

"It serves as a notice of behavior or action that is against
NCHSAA Handbook Policy or contrary to expectations of
sportsmanship and proper behavior that could bring additional
sanctions, including penalties such as a fine or suspensions,
should infractions persist," the statement read. "By NCHSAA
Handbook Policy, probation may last for a period of up to one
year. In the incidence concerned, no opportunities for
participation were limited."...
(end snips)


I think the school should tell the NCHSAA to butt the fuck out
of their local affairs. Nowhere did the cheerleaders display
any affiliation to the NCHSAA. The uniforms were local
school uniforms, and the local school handled it.

I expect nothing more of this, the local schools will do
nothing, as the "probation" is merely SJW virtue signalling
by the libtard NCHSAA.

how are you going to make sure this does not happen again?

sideline the football team

see update in OP

People should withdrawal their children from the school and let the school district shut down.

America's educational system, has been hijacked by radical leftists.

NC is a liberal shithole

not all, by far. Get to the hills and be safer there!

most significant aspect of this story is:


they WANT NC to be ba liberal shithole.... but it is not.


The cheerleaders are not indoctrinated leftists.... nor are the townspeople.

school shit always is, right now

that will change

What is the update I’m not getting it

it is at the top of the page in the original post. thanks for asking. The ABC news link
