[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school likely doesn't want to to offend you.  They want to make an inclusive environment   I think it's kind of overkill too but what's the big deal about completing a form in a private school?  They want to know what holidays the families who pay good money in tuition celebrate. [/quote]

Because they don't think it's important for the school to know. Those forms have multiple questions such as the kid's favorite color. A lot of Hindu families leave it blank because they don't care if the kid learns about Christmas. It's a given if the school is Christian. Should the school also not talk about god? Kind of ridiculous to expect that so most don't say anything because they don't want special treatment. [/quote]

I completely see your point and agree with you. I would not want special treatment either.  It sounds like inclusion overkill. Maybe they got sued at one point or had parents complain about their celebrations not being included so they go overboard. Maybe cut them a break.[/quote]
