TL;DR Summary

Administrators at Heyer Elementary School in Waukesha, Wisconsin, removed a first-grade class's performance of Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton's "Rainbowland" from their spring concert because it promotes LGBTQ acceptance and could be perceived as controversial. The school district has a policy against raising controversial issues in classrooms. The decision has angered parents and raised concerns about the district's policies towards LGBTQ support. The first-grade teacher chose the song because of its universal and sweet message, and the concert's theme was "The World."
