School’s ‘Christmas Carol’ Play Dropped After Parents Object to Tiny Tim
19th December 2016
Two parents at a Pennsylvania elementary school reportedly objected to a famous line in Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’, leading the principal to cancel its Christmas play.
However, Abby Huntsman reported that officials at Centerville Elementary School in East Hempfield Township said they dropped the play from their schedule because it takes too much time out of teaching academics.
But, Huntsman said the unnamed parents objected to Tiny Tim’s famous “God Bless us, everyone” phrase in the 19th Century classic.
A reminder not to send your kids to a government school if you actually want them educated.
