[quote=Anonymous]Oh, FFS! This is ridiculous. My DH is Indian, and even he thinks it's gone way overboard. He joked that the people pushing for this petition must not even really be Indian. No 'true' Indian parent pushes for less time in school for their kid! Is there a petition against this too? Someone needs to start one. Really, what is the percentage of students/teachers that this affects? Maybe MCPS can set a policy that if it affects over 30% (or whatever percentage) of the school population, they'll acknowledge it on the calendar or give the day off or whatever. In reality, I've always supported year-round school, so maybe this is a good way to get that to happen! We'll have to acknowledge all the various holidays for all the various religions/cultures, so there are only so many days left for the kids to be in school. They'll need to go year round![/quote]
