[quote=Anonymous]As a Catholic, I say skip Easter Monday. As a Catholic married to a Jew, I am very much in favor of being off for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. My daughter is a junior in HS now, and her anxiety was off-the-charts about us pulling her out for both, to the point that we sent her to school on YK. They are the holiest days of the calendar for Jews, and it's only 2 days. Send the kids to school on Indigenous People's Day and Veteran's Day and call it a wash. Fairfax and Loudoun are already in school on Vet's day. We grew up on LI where we always had those days off, plus a spring break in February and another week off in April, and by the way, we also did just fine on our AP exams, even though we started after Labor Day -- the horror! I honestly don't remember if we were off Easter Monday, although I think we were. We didn't go to mass or anything. We did go to mass on Good Friday, and I think we were off from school then. God, I feel old.[/quote]
