[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, FCPS didn’t propose it. A group of community members did and for some reason thought they had the authority of the School Board.[/quote] That is not correct at all. The task force was 1 piece of the committee that provided input into the calendar. FCPS ultimately developed the 2 calendars themselves so yes FCPS proposed it. Their own press releases from last year confirm that: [url]https://www.fcps.edu/news/school-board-considers-2021-22-calendar-four-additional-religious-holidays [/url] And from the school board presentation - the makeup of the committee: • Parent Teacher Associations/Organizations: Fairfax County Council PTA, Special Education PTA • Religious Organizations - Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington, Virginia Organized for Interfaith Community Engagement, Islamic Circle of North America • Teacher, Operational Employee, and Principal Associations • Various FCPS Department Personnel • School Board Member[/quote]
