First-graders at a Wisconsin school have been banned from singing Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton's "Rainbowland" at a school concert in May after officials in the Waukesha School District said the song "could be deemed controversial." The song is about living in a world without judgment.
The Waukesha School District in Wisconsin has removed the song "Rainbowland" by Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton from a first-grade spring concert due to concerns it would be controversial. The decision was made based on whether it was appropriate for the age and maturity level of the students and because of social or impacts on them. The district's decision is the latest in a nationwide quarrel over education that has become as much or more about politics as about learning and child development.
