[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I hope not. I enroll my kids in a jewish school because I want them to make predominantly jewish friends, and to be in an environment where jewish people are the majority.[/quote]

And I enroll my kids in MCPS but they still have no class on Jewish holidays. Funny how that works.[/quote]

Your children do not have school on RH or YK but they do have school on [b]sukkot and simchas torah[/b].  Spring break in MCPS is tied to Easter Monday, not pesach.  It is so nice to not have to pack lunches on pesach and to be given the time off to travel to be with  family.

Who cares about any of these holidays??[/quote]

Jews?[/quote]

The kind of religious Jews who send their kid to a Jewish day school. What a dumb question.

I don’t know why OP even wants to send her kid there. My parents enrolled me (a white Jewish kid) in Japanese Saturday school for a year and it was awful. They figured I’d pick up the language and I did, but it was so much more than language. It was culture supported by home. I was literally the only kid there who wasn’t at least half Japanese. They were welcoming after a fashion but it was clear I could never belong. And that was ok! It wasn’t designed for me.

Jewish day schools for non Jews - or even not religious Jews - are the same. [/quote]
