Principal Bans USA Songs From Graduation

[Tank]

A Coney Island principal has put the kibosh on patriotism — again.

Greta Hawkins caused a furor when she barred her PS 90 kindergartners from singing “God Bless the USA” at their graduation ceremony in 2012.

Now she has stopped pre-K kids from singing “Stand Up for the Red, White and Blue” at their June 19 moving-up ceremony.

A class of 4-year-olds was rehearsing the song — which they would belt out while marching into the auditorium waving mini-American flags — when Hawkins (top) halted the patriotic parade.

“You didn’t ask permission to do it,” Hawkins scolded the teachers.

Sounds like a micro-manager...can't do things without her permission....I know a few managers like that.

I agree. I wonder if she would have given permission if asked. If she would have, then I'd respect her even less for being such a petty control freak.

The kids will perform several other tunes during the ceremony, including “You are my Sunshine” and “What a Miracle Am I.”


You are my Sunshine -1939 by The Pine Ridge Boys from Atlanta.
What a Miracle Am I - 1990 by Hap Palmer from Los Angeles

Principal sounds like a micromanaging ****, but she sure as shit didn't ban USA songs. Compulsive liar will lie.

The school librarian at high school never liked me, and she acted like a tin-pot dictator to everyone. Some of my friends used to put books in bags to set the alarms off, I got banned from the library for a month through guilt by association (i.e. I didn't do it, but they decided to punish me anyway), but she was such a stuck up woman it was well worth the laughs. Education circles are full of stuck-up staff that take out their issues on students.
