[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to agree with an earlier post, an MCPS teacher told me it was more about the teachers than the kids - there's way more jewish teachers than available subs. It seems practical - a kid can miss a day for a holiday but a teacher had to be replaced. Eventually we might have enough teachers to close for major hindu or muslim holidays, but until then, it's a student only absence.[/quote] The teacher was wrong. I worked in two different schools. One a high school and the other a middle school. The high school had 120 adults and I can remember only three Jews. I was only at the middle school for two years but I can't remember any.[/quote] So in your high school (we have about that many professional staff), you can honestly say that you knew EVERY Jew? really? I've been at my school for years and don't know half the staff.[/quote]
