Do not forget in many of the schools, not all of the kids are Americans - and I do not mean illegals. They are not going to pledge allegiance to our flag just as in our Villages clubs, the non-Americans do not pledge allegiance to our flag.
No reason to do this in schools on a daily basis anyhow. It becomes meaningless if just done as a morning chore.
