Idaho Teacher Says She Was Ordered To Remove 'Everyone Is Welcome Here' Signs From Classroom

An Idaho teacher, Sarah Inama, faces pressure from the West Ada School District to remove signs stating, 'Everyone is welcome here,' from her classroom.
Inama argues that the signs are crucial for creating an inclusive learning environment, stating, 'There are only two opinions on this sign: Everyone is welcome here or not everyone is welcome here.'
The district maintains that the signs violate Policy 401.20, which requires content-neutral decorations in classrooms.
Despite warnings from her principal about potential insubordination, Inama has chosen to keep the signs, emphasizing her commitment to her students.
