[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In light of the large number of snow days this year, the Howard County Board of Education made the responsible decision to adjust their calendar to prioritize instruction during the school year.  They applied for a waiver to hold school on Easter Monday and converted some half days to full days (see attached link) so that they can make up the time and still end the school year by June 18.  Why in the world can't the MCPS Board of Education do the same?

If we can’t have school on Eid when it was planned as a make up day all along, we definitely can’t have it on Easter Monday[/quote]

For all the idiots asking for MCPS to have school on Easter Monday,  how are you going to justify that?[/quote]

I’m not Christian. Please enlighten me. Who celebrates Easter Monday and what is it that happens? I was under the impression that Easter is celebrated on Sunday. [/quote]
