Parents at DC’s Fanciest Girls’ School Flip Out Over Kids Participating in Inauguration Choir
20th January 2017
Parents and leadership at Washington, D.C.’s fanciest private girls’ school are flipping out that their kids are taking part in choir events for the inauguration as part of the Cathedral Choristers.
Washington National Cathedral has refused to bend to demands that its choristers, some of whom attend the private National Cathedral School (NCS), not participate in two events for the inauguration of Donald Trump.
Gee, you’d think they were Christians or something — which apparently can’t be said of the parents.
“I understand the strong disagreement many people have with the decisions to accept an invitation for the Cathedral choir to sing at the Inauguration and for the Cathedral to host the Inaugural Prayer Service,” Hollerith wrote. “I am sorry those decisions have caused such turmoil and pain. Yet I stand by those decisions — not because we are celebrating the President-elect, but because we want to model for him, and the rest of the country, an approach to civility.”
Good luck with that.
