A Christmas Songs Sung in Schools Act, or the Freedom to Present Christmas Music in Public School Classrooms or Assemblies Act, may be on the November 2010 ballot in California as an initiated state statute.

Mary Susan Hyatt and David Joseph Hyatt filed the ballot language.

The proposal would change the state's Education Code to:

  • Say that public schools in California shall "provide opportunities to its pupils for listening to or performing Christmas music at an appropriate time of year."
  • Schools where Christmas music will be played must notify parents at least 21 days before such performances.
  • Parents are given the option to remove their children from situations where Christmas music will be played if they do not want their children to listen to the music, and have the children put into alternative learning environments when they otherwise would have heard Christmas music.
