[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just remove all religious holidays and the O days from the calendar.   If you want religious holidays, go to a private school.

It's that simple.

Bring back a rational school calendar.  [/quote]

Even Christmas? Christmas is a religious holiday. [/quote]

Christmas isn't a school holiday.[/quote]
Oh, our kids have school on Christmas? I must have missed that [i]every year of my life[/i].[/quote]

Winter Break is a school holiday.  Christmas isn't.[/quote]

And you think that the Winter Break schedule is completely unrelated to Christmas?!  If that's the case, why don't we have school through December and then have a 1-2 week break at the end of the second quarter.  [/quote]

For the last time, so what? You are not now, and never will, have Christmas not a holiday. I don't know why this is your hill to die on. It will be a long slow death.

Too many people celebrate SOME aspect of Christmas: even non-Christians. And even if it were not a holiday, those that do celebrate would be out and make a useless day for everyone else. This is just the practical effect of the holiday.

So you can keep blathering on about Christmas. But, no one is seriously listening. [/quote]

It’s not my hill to die on. I don’t even particularly want to move winter break. But the people suggesting that Christmas isn’t a school holiday are complete morons and I am going to call them out. [/quote]
