Legally, schools and teachers can’t force a student to perform the pledge of allegiance. But it’s also taught so early in school that most students don’t even question it as something to do.
Anectdotally: I was regularly performing the pledge of allegiance (literally said every morning of school) since kindergarten in the US. Also anecdotally: I’ve literally seen a teacher scold student(s) for not performing the pledge of allegiance. The latter case may not be as common; but the former definitely is common in the US.
The usa doesn’t force the children… You do understand that right? There’s actually been a very high profile case over it

They probably don’t. Same type of person that brings up Flint MI even though they’ve addressed the issue
