Abstract	High school band teacher, Mr. Alex Smith, received a request from the Republican presidential campaign for the marching band to perform at an upcoming local rally at which both the presidential and vice-presidential candidates would appear. With support from the principal and superintendent, Mr. Smith moved forward with plans for a Monday performance. Many parents, who got wind of the plans the following Friday at a home football game, protested. As a result, the school board cancelled the performance. The case presents dilemmas related to politics, public school governance, decision making, leadership, and school and community relations. (Contains 1 note.) (As Provided).
