[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Secular can mean either not recognizing any religious holidays or acknowledging several. I think that the latter is oftentimes referred to as "neutral." I prefer this approach so that children are exposed to multiple religious traditions, rather than none.[/quote] Yes, GDS is secular in that it does not recognize any one religion. I would assume that if my DC were to attend a school founded by AAs and Jews, that there may be a greater focus on holidays and other events of significance to those two groups. Moreover, in a society where Christmas decorations go up that day after Halloween, does GDS really need to cater a dinner after the children sing Christmas carols for an hour? I think it would be nice for Eid and Diwali fests. [/quote]
