[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The vote on Thursday is to make Indigenous People's Day and Veteran's Day school days next year. Two days. We're not touching anyone's precious religious holidays. We're not touching the two week winter break, we're not untying spring break from easter. We're just sending kids to school on two federal holidays, one of which is frequently in the middle of the week. I, for one, look forward to being able to go out to lunch with my spouse on Veteran's Day like we used to.[/quote]

Here’s the thing. It will cost me zero dollars to hire childcare on Indigenous Peoples Day and Veterans Day since I will be off of work.

I will not have work off for the religious holidays that FCPC celebrates so will have to budget accordingly.

I wish it was the other way around.

I do support ending school on June 12th. [/quote]

Have you not been paying attention, sweetheart? Most of us are not government workers, we have to work on those two days and we don't want to take them off just because YOU have the day off. Similar to how you are here complaining about religious holidays that you don't want to take work off for. Are you really this stupid????[/quote]
