[quote=Anonymous]The should reinstate school on Eid since it was already designated as a snow day make up, but make it clear that students observing the holiday have an excused absence, and instruct teachers not to cover new material-- let the day be in-school study hall or assemblies or whatnot. Teachers could come up with material that helps sophomores and juniors plan out college prep stuff. Reading cafe for the littles. 8th-10th graders could do mock PSATs or SATs . They could do mental health programming or kickball tournaments or whatnot. They could do review sessions or mock AP tests for that group. Essentially, nothing that kids would have to makeup if they missed school. And they couldn't officially do this, but unofficially my kids' teachers often discourage attendance when they know a schoolday won't be valuable (e.g., day before winter break). Many (beyond those celebrating) would probably take the day off anyway and so be it.[/quote]
