In place of the Veteran's Day assembly, the school's administration opted to recognize the International Day of Tolerance on November 15.
A Redmond elementary school canceled the annual assembly to commemorate and honor Veteran’s Day. They are replacing it with a “Peace Assembly,” leaving some parents “disgusted” by the decision.
Families did not have much time to learn about the change, which was jarring to those who expected a Veteran’s Day assembly. The “Peace Assembly” appeared in the school’s newsletter on October 29 and November 5, but it did not explain what it was. “Students will spend most of the assembly singing songs, with each grade level performing two songs that they learned while attending music classes at the school,” a district spokesperson said of the Peace Assembly in a statement to The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH.
“I know that that there is a lot of tension right now in our communities about the war in Israel,” noting the school has a “fairly large Israeli population.”
