[quote=Anonymous]I get the back and forth about the religious holidays. I do not get those who state :get rid of Christmas. Christianity has always been the leading religion in the US. I always thought this is why Christmas historically was given as holiday off. I’m in the boat that we don’t need two + weeks off around this and New Years. I grew up in New England and one week plus a day or two depending on when Christmas fell was great. Then we had a February break. It aligned with the quarters and semesters much better. This year my HS student was bombarded with assignments and tests before the winter break. Teachers made it like it was the end of the semester because there were 17 days off! Now the kids are back at crazy amounts of assignments and tests because it IS the end of the semester. It’s everything all at once. My kid feels like teachers are scrambling to get everything taught.[/quote]
