The Beverly Hills Unified School District (BHUSD) Board has passed a resolution banning the display and flying of most flags on district property.
The unanimous vote, taken at a special board meeting on Aug. 29, came in response to Superintendent Dr. Alex Cherniss’ overturning of a board resolution adopted on Aug. 26, which stated that in honor of Jewish American Heritage Month, all schools and facilities in the district “will display the flag of the State of Israel … throughout the month of May.”
