NightSide - School Administrators Afraid Of Halloween?

BOSTON (CBS) - Milford, Connecticut made national headlines this week after administrators announced they would not be holding the traditional Halloween costume parade for the elementary school students. The switch from a school day celebration to an optional evening event was intended to be a more inclusive celebration, but the school received a lot of negative feedback and claims that the decision was simply an effort to be politically correct. The district has now announced they will reverse the decision due to the public response. Do you think this is another example of political correctness gone wrong? Or are people too quick to react to change in a negative way?
