[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s about staffing. There are too many Jewish staff members for the system to be able to function.[/quote] +1 I live in Howard County, where, like Montgomery County, there is a movement to be more inclusive in recognizing holidays from different religions and cultures. However, the days off for the fall Jewish holidays have been around for a long time and were originally adopted due to staffing issues. [/quote] I don’t think it’s about staffing at all. Baltimore county schools, which has the highest Jewish population in Maryland, just gives students the day off for Yom Kippur. School employees must go into work, or take the day off.[/quote]
