CdA Schools Honor Clint Stennett

On his Facebook page, Mike Kennedy posts this photo and notes that the U.S. flag is being flown at half staff in honor of the former Senate Minority Leader Clint Stennett, who died recently after a long battle with brain cancer. Writes Mike: "I wanted to get a shot of the flag honoring Clint, and when I arrived for a meeting at my son's school there it was in the beautiful bright sunshine. I asked the administrative assistant who confirmed the honoree was our friend. A very bittersweet moment for me. He is going to be missed by many."

Question: When should flags at the state, school, county, or city be flown at half staff?
