Flagged Down
Florida officials estimate there are 156,000 U.S. flags in the state's classrooms. But many of them aren't the right kind of flag. A new state law mandates requires classroom flags to be 3-feet by 2-feet. Education officials estimate that some 15,000 flags are the wrong size and will have to be replaced. The law says schools should first try to pay for the flags through fundraisers and donations, but if that doesn't work, they'll have to dig into their own pockets.
