Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe story about the Hillsboro School District in Oregon banning Santa is NOT true.
I googled "Hillsboro School District, Oregon" and found a disclaimer on the first page of their website. They want it to be known that they have NOT banned Santa. The story apparently got started because some administrators told their staffs to be sensitive to various cultures, religions during the holiday season. It got all distorted and ended up being inaccurately reported in the local paper. I also logged onto the district's December event calendar and found school site events like "Ornament Day", "Holiday Bazaar" etc. etc.
