[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The legislature needs to change the law to allow schools to operate on Easter Monday, MLK Day and Presidents' Day. Hogan has said he would sign legislation that allows schools to be open the Monday after Easter.  Not sure about the other two days but it seems reasonable.

Maybe MCPS should be writing to the legislature instead of Hogan. [/quote]

And the Friday before Easter too, right?[/quote]

[b]Isn't that a religious holiday?[/b] I know that the Monday after isn't and MLK and President's day aren't religious holidays either. [/quote]

Yes, it is. So what?[/quote]

yes, no more easter Monday, good Friday, MLK, Prez Day, Columbus Day, Professional goof-off days, Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, Eid off for the whole school district.

If Good Friday or Rosh Hashanah is important to you, take a vacation day to pray, worship, fast, celebrate with your family in your homes and churches and temples.   There should not be pushback for that, plus in most cases the parents are taking off of work as well. Now instead you can't "blame" the public school district for not being able to work and having a Fun Day Shopping. [/quote]
