[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder if all the Jewish staff fasted for 24 hours, avoided leather sand marital relations, and spent the day in prayer……. That’s what is supposed to happen on Yom Kipper. [/quote] Yes, that is what my family did. I don’t understand what about this is so triggering. I appreciate those like the PP above who are supportive. You can’t understand what it’s like to be a non-Christian in this country - Christianity is pervasive in our popular culture and non-Christians are reminded over and over that they are “other.” It’s a nice breather for my kids to not have to stand out for being absent these days.[/quote] + 1. It’s also not a surprise. People have had plenty of time to line up child care. If the issue is you think it detracts from learning, as another PP said, there’s the same number of instructional days in the year. So it really shouldnt be a big deal. [/quote]
