A high school in Massachusetts canceled “USA Day” from its spirit week activities to “avoid politics”.
Each day of the week consisted of a different theme leading up to the school’s Thanksgiving football game, according to Boston 25 News. Some themes included Throwback Thursday and Wild West Wednesday. Instead of hosting “USA Day” on Friday, the school replaced it with “Fitness Friday.”
Olivia Spagnuolo, a member of the school’s Student Unification Program, told Boston 25 News that the group was tasked with coming up with the themes. “The administration was not going to let “USA Day” happen.
Hmmm, so in an attempt to "avoid politics", they decided to get political. I wouldn't be surprised if the students plan their own surprise.
