According to MCPS:
There are 160,680 students, so 0.75% of students responded.
There are 24,246 staff, so 33.6% responded.

Of the 1/3 of staff who responded, about 15-17% said that they would take the Jewish holidays off.

When the survey came out, the county synagogues did a big push to make their congregants complete the survey.  That 33.6% of the staff respondents is most probably going to have much more of the Jewish teacher subgroup than the 66.7% so that 15-17% is much more likely to be close to 5% of the total teaching population.

34% is a very high response rate for a survey like this.

I wonder how you know what the "county synagogues" did.[/quote]

I run an event once a week in one and saw posters and information posted.  I have several friends who attend several different synagogues in the area.  I know of at least 10 synagogues that were actively pushing their congregations to respond to the survey to "keep the Jewish holidays on the schedule."[/quote]
