Dear Parents/Guardians:
The Colorado Legislature
approved and put into law a requirement that students recite the Pledge of
Allegiance each day in Colorado public schools. The state statute does, however, provide for an exemption for
religious objectors as well as any other reason if parents/guardians request
this exemption in writing. This
written request should be addressed to the principal of your child(ren)’s
school.
Students will recite the
Pledge of Allegiance at the start of their first hour classes.
For those of you who wish to request an exemption, you may draft a letter or
simply click on one of the links below to download a form, complete it and
return it to the Main Office at Jenkins Middle School.
I appreciate your
cooperation in this matter.
