Broward school board votes to prohibit religious and political signs on schools


Archive Link

“We want to make sure that our schools are welcoming to every student no matter what they believe,” Rebecca Thompson, a school board member who voted in favor of the ban, told NBC Miami.
The policy change was the result of religious discrimination complaints from two very different groups.
