Benjamin Rush Elementary in Redmond decided to replace their annual Veterans Day\u200c assembly with a &#8220;peace assembly&#8221; to honor\u200d the \u2064International Day of Tolerance sponsored by \u200bthe \u200bU.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural \u2063Organization.<\/p>\n<p>This decision\u2063 was met with disappointment\u200d and frustration from the community,\u2062 as the\u200b patriotic songs and recognition of veterans were no longer part of the\u2063 school&#8217;s agenda. A concerned father, \u2062who wished to remain anonymous, expressed his disappointment, stating that the school\u2064 administration \u200bhas moved away \u200cfrom pride in\u2063 American traditions and history.<\/p>\n<p>The impact of this decision goes beyond\u200d just \u2063the veterans and\u2062 the community&#8217;s participation. The students are being deprived of the \u200copportunity to learn about the importance of honoring history, tradition, and the sacrifices\u2063 made by\u200c those who\u2064 fought for their freedom.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2064school&#8217;s justification for \u200dthe\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/american-elementary-school-reportedly-scraps-veterans-day-assembly-replaces-it-with-un-sponsored-day-of-tolerance\/\" title=\"American elementary school replaces Veterans Day assembly with UN-sponsored 'Day of Tolerance'.\">change fell flat<\/a>, as they \u2062claimed to\u200d celebrate \u2062the U.N. \u200bholiday by having students watch videos and make \u2062cards \u200bfor the Seattle VA Medical Center. However, this response only further highlighted the lack\u2062 of intelligence and ill-intention behind the decision.<\/p>\n<p>By replacing Veterans Day with a U.N. holiday, the school \u2063is\u200d contributing to\u2063 the agenda of removing history and tradition from children&#8217;s lives. This move aligns with the progressive and \u200bradical left&#8217;s\u200c efforts to replace American \u2063values with\u2063 self-hatred and fantasy.<\/p>\n<p>It\u200c is crucial to\u2062 recognize that being an American is something to be \u2063proud of,\u2064 despite our \u2063imperfect history. We should not shy \u200daway from teaching our children \u200dthe lessons embedded\u2064 in our nation&#8217;s past.<\/p>\n<p>While tolerance is important, it should not come at the expense of honoring our\u2063 veterans.\u2063 We need to find a balance and celebrate both holidays, \u2062rather than erasing the significance of\u200d Veterans Day.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately,\u2063 the solution lies in\u200b removing these\u2063 woke decision-makers \u2062from their positions and ensuring that\u2064 our schools \u2063prioritize the values and traditions that make America great.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>An Urgent Note from Our Staff:<\/h3>\n<p><em><b>The Western \u200bJournal \u200dhas been \u200d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/pfizer-recruits-super-bowl-champ-to-be-official-spokesman-for-covid-booster\/\" title=\"Pfizer hires Super Bowl champ as COVID booster spokesperson.\">labeled \u201cdangerous\u201d simply<\/a> \u2064because we have a biblical worldview\u200d and speak the truth\u200b about what is\u200b happening \u200bin America.<\/b><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We refuse to let \u200cBig Tech and woke advertisers \u200bdictate the content \u2062we share with our community.

Veterans Day is a day to honor those \u2064who have \u2063served in the military, \u2064and it\u2063 serves as \u2063a reminder of the importance of patriotism, gratitude, and respect.<\/p>\n<p>Honoring Veterans\u200b Day is not just about putting on \u2064a show or hosting an assembly; \u2062it is about instilling\u2063 in future generations a deep sense of appreciation and understanding for the sacrifices and bravery displayed by \u200dveterans.\u200d Veterans Day assemblies provide an opportunity for\u200d students to learn about the \u200bhistory of our nation and reflect\u200c on the sacrifices made by those \u200dwho fought to protect the values\u2062 and freedoms we\u200c hold dear.<\/p>\n<p>By replacing Veterans\u200c Day with a U.N. holiday, the school is sending a message that American traditions\u2062 and\u200b history\u200b do not hold the same value as \u200dinternational events. This decision undermines the significance \u2064of Veterans Day and diminishes the importance of honoring our veterans.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Veterans \u200dDay assemblies allow students to connect \u200dwith veterans on\u200b a personal level. They can listen to \u200dtheir stories, ask\u2064 questions,\u2064 and learn about firsthand experiences. This interaction not only educates the students\u200b about the sacrifices made by \u200bveterans but also provides an opportunity for them to express their gratitude and respect.<\/p>\n<p>The decision made by\u200d Benjamin Rush Elementary School also overlooks the fact that Veterans Day is not just about honoring those who have served in the past, but also about supporting our current service members. It is a day to show appreciation for their \u2063dedication, courage, and commitment to protecting our country.<\/p>\n<p>The backlash faced by \u2063Benjamin Rush Elementary School\u200d is a reminder of the importance of honoring\u2063 Veterans Day. Veterans have put their lives on the line to defend our freedom and way of life. It \u2062is crucial that \u2062we remember their sacrifices\u2062 and show our gratitude \u2064for their service.<\/p>\n<p>As a nation, we must come together\u2064 to ensure that Veterans Day remains a significant and honored day \u200bin our society. We must teach our children the \u200bimportance of\u2064 honoring our veterans and instill in them a deep sense of\u2064 gratitude and respect. By doing so, we ensure that the \u2064sacrifices made by veterans will \u200bnever \u200dbe forgotten, and their\u2062 legacy will continue to inspire future generations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Washington state elementary school, Benjamin Rush Elementary, has faced backlash from conservatives for canceling their annual Veterans Day assembly.
