Ceremonies and Observances
Consistent
with the mandate of state law, it is the policy of the East Haddam Board of
Education to provide an opportunity at the start of every school day for each
student and each teacher to observe a time of silent meditation.
The morning opening
exercises will include the Pledge of Allegiance. Those students who have
religious or conscientious objections may be excused from participating.
