Board Of Education Bans Confederate Flags, Swastikas & Nooses At Schools

SALEM,. OR -- The Oregon State Board of Education has unanimously approved the “All Students Belong” rule. The new temporary rule…the first of its kind in the nation…bans the use of Confederate flags, swastikas or nooses in all Oregon Schools. Bend Republican State Representative Cheri Helt says she will move to codify the “All Students Belong” rule into state law in the 2021 legislative session. She says the “All Students Belong” rule sends a message to Indigenous and people of color Oregon won’t tolerate racism, white supremacy or hate.
