[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the District's recommendation against establishing the new holiday, [b]staff made clear that additional absenteeism for EID was de mini is[/b], so BOE is not applying it's usual criteria and will probably get sued by another religion with an unrecognized holiday as a result. Maybe the B'hai. But whatever the views on the wisdom of celebrating this holiday, or the method (professional day) this calendar nonsense is an unanticipated consequence that should just be avoided. Status quo, please![/quote] There is no way to know from attendance data how many people would like to not have school on Eid al-Adha but go to school because there is school. In addition, the BoE has yet to publish any data on absenteeism for Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur. Not to mention that we have no idea what the absenteeism would be for Christmas, because school is always closed for Christmas. [/quote]
