[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 88897, member: 831"] Of course it's okay to object. Here in the California there is a formal process to "challenging" a book. Mostly, I have removed a few books because of language and subject matter was not appropriate for elementary students. As far as the pumpkin thing. It puts me on a slow burn that because one, or two, parents object to Halloween, teachers can't acknowledge it in anyway to all students. It's bites! I was a child that wasn't allowed to do Halloween, but at school, I participated where I could behind my parents back. In short, I snuck around and I'm glad I did. A couple of years ago, before moving to the much larger building I'm in now, I went full out decorating in the library. Not too scary for the little ones, but something that made everyone enjoy it plus just a little bit creepy. The students loved it! I basically dared the principal to protest by declaring that I was promoting literacy through Halloween and halloween books. Last year I couldn't because of moving, but this year I can't count how many times I've been asked about what I am going to do for halloween. I respond: "It's a secret". [/QUOTE]
