There is just NO REASON for kids to be required to "defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic." This is why we have a military. Not to mention the whole business of being required to take an oath to graduate.

A loyalty oath makes sense when applying for citizenship or even registering to vote, things like that, but in this context it's ridiculous.
