[quote=Anonymous]There are two reasons a public school system should close for a religious holiday: 1. That holiday is a federal holiday, and/or 2. A large enough number of students/employees celebrate the holiday & would be absent that it would be disruptive. This needs to be a predetermined threshold (eg, 20%?) that is consistently applied. This would be a fair & objective way to determine days off. Separately, APS needs to get better at putting things like teacher work days adjacent to holidays off so things aren’t so choppy. [/quote]
