[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From today's e-mail:

"At present, per state law, we need to make up four instructional days. There are two days that we have identified in the calendar that will be changed from non-instructional days to instructional days: March 20th will be a full instructional day. June 18th will be an early release instructional day and the new last day of the school year for students and staff. Other potential make up days are also being considered and some of those days may require additional approvals before being announced - none of those potential days are in February.

Like other localities in Maryland, we will be requesting a waiver from the state of some of the missed instructional days. Pending the outcome of that waiver, we will update our Make-Up plan and share that with you as soon as we know."[/quote]

This is unfair. The jews got their holidays, Indians got their diwali, [b]Christians will get their Easter and Passover[/b], they are not even taking away lunar new year!! They came after a muslim holiday?? It is not a good look MCPS![/quote]

I guess Passover is now a Christian holiday! lol
I agree this is unfair but Maryland law is to blame. MCPS are forced to add 4 school days and don't want to use the February days despite being allowed to do so. They could have done Feb 16, 17, April 15 but are too stubborn.[/quote]

This is Mcps.  You are expecting too much.  [/quote]
