[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of it is clearly virtue signaling by the liberal School Board (I’m on the left, but this is obvious) and some of it is actual operational need. There are certain days where you expect call-outs due to religious holidays and if they are significant enough it hampers the ability to run school smoothly. This isn’t a student thing, it is a teacher/bus driver/etc problem. [/quote] It is a ripple effect. Neighboring school districts started giving these holidays. Staff who live outside the county struggled with childcare and were calling out on these days. FCPS decided to adopt these holidays too. Where FCPS goes above and beyond isn’t with religious holidays. It’s random padding days to bridge long weekends and 2 days off between quarters when most districts only do 1. [/quote]
