[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If FCPS created an honest survey, Christmas would have been on the federal holiday list and Ash Wednesday & the two Orthodox holidays would have been listed with the religious holidays, as well as decoupling Easter from spring break.[/quote] No, because the Orthodox holidays and Ash Wednesday were never days off for students. They are O days. The days that are holidays for students and staff (when they fall on school days) are Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, Diwali, and the two Eids. Any other listed day is not automatically a day off for students. If it was, it was because they tried to kill two birds with one stone by placing a teacher workday during an O day. So, if you get rid of the holidays as stated, it would only give you 5 days of school back. Everything else is required days for teacher planning or training.[/quote]
