[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So Easter is a little over a week away.  Tons of events and celebrations of it in the city that many, many families plan on attending especially the Easter egg hunts for the kiddies.

And OP is annoyed and thinks she is so self righteous to denounce an event that she attended, as a guest, because they have an Easter craft table or whatever for the kiddies.

Think I summed up this thread correctly.

Oh forgot and she and some people on here think that just because there were not other tables of other religious holidays that the school is not inclusive, when these are not even remotely coming up AND she has no idea what other holidays the schools celebrates…..

That’s it in a nutshell folks……..

Heavy on the snark and low on the smarts for you I see. Good thing there’s nothing remotely important on for observant Muslims right now. Best to get a jump on Easter in two weeks instead clearly…[/quote]

If you’re expecting the average teachers, admins and parents at DC schools to proactively set up multicultural religious celebrations, your delusional. Their goal is to create a little levity in the struggle that is educating the average DC child, and that means, yes, Easter celebrations and teaching the 5 year olds Christmas carol. Go ahead and be the “nice [UMC] parent” lecturing the long-time Kindergarten teacher about why she can’t do the bunny art project this year.

+1 especially when only 1% of the US population are Muslims.  Where as mentioned above 70% of the population are Christians.

My dad is Buddhist so you can say my family is in the 1% category too.  But I don’t expect Buddhism to be celebrated at my kids school and have no problem with the Easter activity that many families might enjoy.
