Specific references to a Nebraska patriotism law will be included in the state's school certification requirements under a draft approved by the state Board of Education. The board voted 4-3 to not only refer to the state's 52-year-old patriotism law, but also summarize some of its key requirements. An earlier draft of the requirements for state accreditation of schools removed a reference to the law. At last month's meeting, the board voted to put the reference back in. (AP) |
