[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh God :roll: Just put it on a calendar already and let people who celebrate it take the day off as a "religious excused absence." No tests or introduction of new material on the day. Done. [/quote] No they want the entire county to take off of work to watch their kids or pay for daycare so a few thousand of them can celebrate their holiday. [/quote] What's your threshold? How many people have to celebrate a religious holiday for MCPS to close for it?[/quote] No threshold but it is the only fair solution I see. Otherwise, since I come from Brazil and we celebrate carnaval there with 3 days off, I will want that too. Otherwise it would be insensitive to my culture.... :wink: [/quote] OK, what should the threshold be for closing for religious holidays (including carnaval/carnival/Mardi Gras etc.)?[/quote]
