[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of more concern should be the religious holidays that get plugged into the school calendar. If parents or guardians want to take their kids out of school to celebrate a religious holiday, then so be it. Why must the whole school district take off the day, or days? It's absolutely ridiculous. [/quote] Yup, and that is why we are now going to have school on Christmas and Easter. [/quote] Easter is on Sunday and Christmas is part of winter break, a federal holiday, and almost everywhere but Asian restaurants are closed. Even the Smithsonian is closed. But nice try. That said Good Friday and Easter Monday should be removed along with Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashannah, Eid, Diwali, Luna New Year etc... Less than 10% of the entire district need off for these holidays. And if not, since 30% of MC students are now Hispanic, my guess is that we should have off for Three Kings Day too. [/quote]
