    So, no days off for anyone. That's socialism for kids. Make everyone equally miserable.

    Are weekends off still OK? Or, are they also, somehow racist, non-inclusive, not woke enough, unfair to people of color, too "white privilege-y", unfair to the LBJGQRST community?

    Give them time, they'll come up with even more stupid reasons.

    The Board of Education in a New Jersey town voted unanimously Thursday to replace holiday names on the school calendar with the more inclusive “Day Off."



    The vote follows criticism over last month's decision to change Columbus Day on the school calendar, which led to board members receiving phone calls and emails from those in opposition to the change, according to TAPinto.


    A motion was initially made to remove only holidays mentioning ethnic or religious groups in an effort to not offend any other group but the board then decided to vote on replacing all holiday names, putting "Day Off" in their place because of fears that some groups would still be “left out” of the existing holidays.



    The board said in a statement following the meeting:


    After careful consideration of concerns introduced by both proponents of the change as well as those in opposition to the change, a motion was presented for consideration to stop using holiday titles on the district’s calendar … We agreed unanimously that the change would be both inclusive and equitable. Although we have made these changes to the school district’s calendar, our decision to change the calendar titles will not impact the education of holidays as guided by the district’s curriculum.



    The vote comes as many schools nationwide replace Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day on their school calendars......snip~

    Yep.....some real bright bulbs here, huh?
    Honestly I think most people could care less; what they want is a day off from school regardless of whatever you decide to call it.

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    That is because people are stupid.

    Generally, holidays have some special significance. That is why they are holidays.

    A holiday is a day set aside by custom or by law on which normal activities, especially business or work including school, are suspended or reduced. Generally, holidays are intended to allow individuals to celebrate or commemorate an event or tradition of cultural or religious significance. Holidays may be designated by governments, religious institutions, or other groups or organizations. The degree to which normal activities are reduced by a holiday may depend on local laws, customs, the type of job held or personal choices.



    Schools deem whatever days as Institutional Days. Kids get off. Holidays means something or somebody.

    These holidays are in celebration of our country, events and people who helped to make it what it is.

    Take your kids out of public schools, they want to cancel everything on which this country was founded/built.
