[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before y’all yet too anti-immigrant on us…I’m an immigrant (Muslim) that’s married to another immigrant (Hindu) and I don’t want Divali, Eid, Chinese New Year and weeks off for Christmas! I want my children to be in school as much as possible throughout the school year. I sent them to a secular(public) school with that expectation that religious holidays should not result in school closures. [/quote] Frankly I doubt it is first generation immigrant families that are driving the push for all these days off. I think they are more likely to realize that in their home country they have a different set of holidays and a wave of Americans moving there all of a sudden would not shift what their country celebrates & when.
