Stockbridge votes to start days with Pledge of Allegiance
The Stockbridge School Committee decided to begin each school day with the Pledge of Allegiance and rejected adopting a moment of silence for prayer. Supt. Gallagher opposed the silence as a de facto prayer violating Supreme Court rulings, while most members favored the pledge alone. The board also debated opening with the National Anthem, but ultimately approved starting with the flag salute.
