[quote=Anonymous]"There are more than Christians, Hindus, Jews and Muslims in this county you know. If the new policy is to construct the calendar around religious holidays as a mere matter of embracing diversity, get ready for Jain Zoroastrian Wiccan (of every type) Various Pagans ATR (do you even know what that is lol) and others that I haven't listed to demand their holidays off as well. They would be entitled to do so and I will stand with them. Don't tell them that they can't have it because there are too few of them." +1 There is NOT a fair way to handle this and draw any type of line to the endless number of requests that could reasonably be put forward once awarding a holiday is seen as "respecting" or "honoring" something rather than a practical admission that school can't functionally run that day.[/quote]
