[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it true that if you pull your kid out for a religious holiday that APS does not observe, it’s an unexcused absence? Someone over on AEM is trying to say that. Complaining that her kids won’t get off for the holiday so will now take an unexcused absence. [/quote] She’s complaining about Diwali. Which is on a Sunday and is excused. But she is also a known loon. So I’m assuming that is the issue [/quote] She's complaining Diwali isn't even acknowledged on next year's calendar. It's clearly acknowledged this year with this Monday a day off. And she doesn't seem to mind that NO religious holiday that falls on a weekend day is "acknowledged" on the calendar. Christmas and Easter are not noted on the calendar. I wish we'd stop making the day after Easter a grade prep day. I like option 3. Shorter winter break, least disruptive second half of the year without the stupid chopped up 3-day week after spring break.[/quote]
