[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll admit the only thing I know about Scientology is that Tom Cruise is a member of the religion.

But COME ON. APS should not cancel school because of what’s going on with the moon.

And people wonder why Trump won.

School is more important than any religious holiday. The only reason we MUST close for Christmas is because there is a significant enough drop in attendance during those days to warrant it.

Cut the religious holidays and go back to excusing absences. Let’s not be held hostage by those whose religious dates can be moved on a whim.

This is just another example of how school districts do not prioritize learning. neither political party cares how much kids actually learn in school. It is depressing. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/10/us/education-politics-learning.html

“Right now, there are no education goals for the country,” said Arne Duncan, who served as President Barack Obama’s first secretary of education after running Chicago’s public school system. “There are no metrics to measure goals, there are no strategies to achieve those goals and there is no public transparency.”[/quote]
