During a committee meeting held on Pearl Harbor Day (Dec. 7), Anchorage School Board member Dave Donley moved to have the public schools play the National Anthem over the intercom on Pearl Harbor Day, Veterans Day, and on Sept. 11, if schools are in regular session on those dates.
Donley could not get any support for the motion from his fellow board members, however. The motion was tabled and referred to the school superintendent’s office to study until March.
