Nothing celebrating Ramadan. Ramadan was in November this year . . . . No songs about Saturnalia or Sol Invictus?!?!? I'm suing!

You're surprised the school went out on a limb and sang Jingle Bells? Not exactly overtly religious. The play list seems pretty PC to me.

Sounds like fun! And yes, I'd like to see what the Seattle schools had....if anything. Probably hail to Lenin. The group I'm program chair for this two years had our Dec meeting on Wed. We had a local private school's 5th and 6th grade Chorus for our program. They had 3 presentations for us using "bells", and one with using cymbals (the young boy who got to use them did it with great relish <ggg>), plus just singing. It was lovely, and no one worried about being PC or not. The kids were well mannered, glad to see us, and everyone said thank you (and really seemed to mean it) when I gave each of them a small gift. It was a wonderful day!!!
