On Friday, Superintendent Angela Grunewald addressed recent controversy surrounding Edmond Public Schools’ flag policies in response to new guidelines from state Superintendent Ryan Walters. Grunewald clarified that the district is committed to displaying the American flag at each school and emphasized that the controversy stemmed from misunderstandings about their practices. The policy, established in 2017, was developed to prevent disruptions and potential disrespect of the flag after incidents of aggressive behavior at high school events. The district decided to ban flags from school parking lots and stadiums to maintain a safe and respectful environment.
