Do your kids say the pledge of Allegiance? (kindergarten, pre-school, grades)

My students in North Carolina did.

Yes, my kids in our North Carolina public schools say it. They also said it in our Virginia public school when they went there.

Nope, and neither will my kids, I'm in Texas so kids can say it, but you can't force a child to do it, i think it goes against their freedom of expression.

It's required by law in all public schools in Texas, unless excused by the parent.

Nope, kids at a private Int'l/French school in TX.

I am fine with my kids reciting the pledge at certain events where appropriate and pertinent, but a daily chanting crosses the line toward jingoism, in my opinion.

[georgiainwyo]

Yes, in our K-12 school it is said in unison by everyone every morning.

[laulob]

Yes daily in K-2 school
3-5 school and middle school at monthly assembly and at other school wide events.
Not sure about HS

Kids don't have to actually say it if they don't want to but they do have to stand and remove hats.

They did in elementary school, but not in middle or high school.
