[quote=Anonymous]When I was in elementary school (mcps), back in the 80s, we used to make dreidels out of clay for Hanukkah. I also remember eating gefilte fish. We were not a Jewish school at all. Most of us were minorities! I also remember making lanterns for the Chinese new year. We celebrated Valentine’s Day, Halloween, and Christmas. I remember looking forward to the Jewish holidays because they had so many fun festivals. I think participating and learning about other cultures and religions can help bridge understanding and bring us together rather than divide us. There’s so much division and division breeds misunderstandings and resentment. MCPS used to be a place where you could learn reading, writing an arithmetic, but also have a rich cultural education. It’s a shame that it doesn’t seem to be that way anymore. [/quote]
