[quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous wrote: ...so here does it stop? Are school's now supposed to close for every religious holiday for every faith? Kids would never be in school. This is a slippery-slope argument. Which, actually reminds me of, "Well, if we let gays marry, then what next?" Let's treat closing school for Eid on the merits of closing school for Eid. [/quote] No. It is a valid argument. FCPS calendar lists all religious holidays whether kids are in school or not. If all religious holidays are recognized as days off from school, there would be no school. At some point common sense must prevail and in this case, specifically, the number of children and teachers effected by the policy to give the day is a valid determinative factor.[/quote]
