Todd Starnes recently posted this about this story in Missouri:
"Kim Cranston, a spokesperson for the Rockwood School District, told FOX News Radio, the initial ban on the birthday song was meant to protect the students.
'One of the things that she (Davidson) had explained to me is they always want to be sensitive to all children,' Cranston said. 'And there are some children in their school – as there are in many schools – who don’t participate in holiday or birthday celebrations.'
Cranston said to her knowledge there had been no prior complaints about the singing of the 'Happy Birthday' song."
