A USSC case about this (Williamette) made it clear that students don't have to stand or participate in the Pledge.

Nearly 80 years ago. Even I know that, and I'm an idiot.

I don't know what teachers are taught about their legal/civil rights responsibilities, but one would think this landmark case would be way up that list of Things to Remember.
