A Massachusetts school district is only the latest liberal loons to cancel Halloween for the kids because it isn’t “inclusive” enough.
It’s all about eliminating American ideals, traditions, and just good, clean fun, in favor of pushing the extreme, anti-American, left-wing agenda.
Northborough Public Schools Superintendent Gregory Martineau angered some parents early this month when he sent a letter home to parents piously exclaiming that he is smarter and more caring than those around him because he wants to promote “inclusiveness” and Halloween does not fit in with his indoctrination campaign.
According to CBS Boston, some parents objected to this woke evangelist when he proclaimed that Halloween is out and “fall-themed spirit day” is in.
“This collaborative decision aligns with the District’s core values of equity and inclusion,” Martineau’s letter says. “Moving the parade outside of the school day provides families the opportunity to participate in a manner that is most comfortable for them.”

But many parents were not appreciative of Martineau’s meddling.
“Frankly, I don’t understand it,” one parent said. “I don’t understand why it is being taken away from my son.”
Parent Edward Reiss called the school’s decision “insulting.”
“And it smacks of a decision that the administration knew was going to be unpopular and just pushed it through by any means they could because that’s what they wanted. I am worried about what precedent this sets,” Reiss added.
However, parent James Hamlan insisted there was “the money aspect” to the decision and supported the idea of having the PTO hold a Halloween parade after school.
“Not everyone can afford a Halloween costume,” Hamlan said. “There’s the parent aspect, some kids have their parents there and they are able to leave work and witness the parade. I think it’s good because it means more parents are going to be able to go to whatever parade the PTO is organizing.”
This kind of garbage happens every year. With Christmas. With Easter. With Columbus Day. With Halloween… in short every American holiday and tradition is a target for elimination because it isn’t woke enough.
