[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't students have Nowruz, Ethiopian New Year's, or other new year's days off? If they try to give Ethiopian one off, people would complain it is 9/11. But MCPS does give j new year's off. Let's celebrate ALL new year's then. And on most years when YomK is not on a weekend, schools are also closed for it. So let's pick ALL the major holiest holidays for ALL heritages and give those days off. Schools could be year round because there would be so many days off.[/quote] Because the population celebrating Ethiopian new year is not as large as the population celebrating Jewish New Year, particularly in relation to staff and students that would be missing.[/quote] I don't know. My child's school there's a large population of Ethiopian kids it's probably bigger than the Jewish population. [/quote]
