[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've had 3 (4?) religious holidays so far this year... and endless more to come. Liberals fought hard to remove any entanglement between public school and Christian religion, now these hypocrites can't add enough religious holidays to the schedule. Wish my kids were in school and learning. Wish the School Board even cared about that. [/quote] It's interesting the push for the school holiday when many Indians in the area are contractors whose company doesn't provide the day off. Yes, they can take a vacation day if they have some available or they can take the day off without pay so many don't. The celebration mostly happens in the evening anyway so no reason parents couldn't work the day if they had to. Just some perspective [/quote] Your perspective should add that kids are usually up (and possibly out) very, very late on this holiday and would not have time to do HW.[/quote] Which is why there should be a no-HW/quiz/test/paper/assignment policy for those days so that kids don't have to worry about it. But the kids can still be in class for lecture or get the lecture notes if their family misses class that day.[/quote]
