[quote=Anonymous]I suspect MCPS is likely to be sued over closing on religious holidays (deleting the names does not make a legal difference) and then they will have to compare absences as a way of justifying the current policy. My suspicion is that days like today will have just as high absences as some of the religious holidays for which school is closed. The problem with holding school this week is that for many kids/schools (though not all), the days are wasted and that is two days when little learning goes on. It is not like MCPS has more school days than other Districts, it just seems that some of their judgments are not based on maximizing learning opportunities. [/quote]
