Broward schools being asked to close on 2 Muslim holidays
Broward County public schools are being asked to close for two Islamic holidays a year under a controversial proposal before the district's Diversity Committee.

The request, from the Florida chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations, or CAIR, would make Broward the first in Florida and one of only a few districts in the country to add Muslim holidays into its calendar. Broward and Palm Beach County schools generally close on major Christian and Jewish holidays.

Re: Broward schools being asked to close on 2 Muslim holidays
Just playing devils advocate, but if the schools get off for christmas, why not any other religious holiday?

Let's be honest. It's all make believe, so an extra day off never hurts.

That's what I said about the MLK holiday. Sure, he was an immoral degenerate, but if I get a paid day off from work because of him, well, sounds good to me!

If a large percentage of the students will not be in school on that day, then the district should schedule it as a teacher work day or training day. But if the devil worshipers are in the minority, then they should get the day excused in advanced and have to make up their homework.

That's how they do it for every other religion and belief in the country.

More then 10% of the students in a local school district are Russian Orthodox. The district doesn't shut down for their holidays. The students bring notes to school, and get their assignments for the day(s) they will be gone in advanced.

I don't know, but if it gave me a day off from school, or a paid day off from work, I would be all for it.

I've never seen a school close on a Jewish holy day. Schools close on state holidays, not Christian or Jewish.

There are probably enough religious holidays to take off the entire year...

If Islam gets its way, so should every other cult. Imagine Scientology wants the entire year off. Then WHAT?
