WAUKESHA, Wis. — The Waukesha School District believes in diversity and values individual differences, according to its mission statement. But new rules against classroom displays suggest otherwise, teachers say.
Decorations signaling inclusion and acceptance are now forbidden.LGBTQ+ signs, rainbow flags, Black Lives Matter posters and “safe space” signs are off-limits because they’re political and encourage advocacy, the suburban Milwaukee district told teachers this fall.
