Maryland parents opposed to the creeping progressive capture of the state’s public schools suffered a defeat this week when the Anne Arundel school board voted against a measure that would ban pride flags in classrooms — but they’re not backing down.

“Even though we lost this battle, we are still going full ahead with the war, and we plan to win that,” said local mom Kerry Gillespie. “This is emblematic of what we’re seeing in the country, which is a fight between parents and saying what is best for their children within our education system, which courts have already said is our fundamental right.”
