Then the school should be open on December 25th and the 4th Thursday in November. Make those teacher service days where faculty are there but students have the day off.

LIBs are idiots: be they “educators” or not. Make the “educators” work 5 days a week for 11 months a year...overpaid slackers.

"My personal feeling is we need to find a way to honor and engage in holidays that are inclusive of our student population," Principal Scott Masini wrote in a letter to parents.

It dosen't seem to be very inclusive for Christians or Americans. They must not have any attending that school.

I’ve never understood how being more “inclusive” requires ELIMINATING things that have been done for hundreds of years. Actually, I do understand it. “Inclusivity” is a fraud.

“multi cuturalism” is a moronic idea.

Sure, but what about the Muslim holidays they will be forced to add to the calendar? Might as well expect May Day, too.

Bye bye America. Hello Amerika.

A roomful of white people is a “microagression” or so I’ve heard recently.

Can “skin darkification” surgery be very far off?

My nose is too “White” doctor, can you reshape it so I can be “socially legit”?

“I must marry someone of a: [different race, different religion, from a different country, same gender] or my [racism, religious intolerance, xenophobia, homophobia] will be obivous!”

This doesn’t make sense. In order to be more inclusive we have to exclude our traditional holidays?

Exactly. "Multiculturalism" is a fraud.

Fortunately, Black history month takes up the entire month of February, with full expositions of Martin Luther King’s importance to America in every classrioom in the US.
Unfortunately, college students don’t know much about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, whose February birthdays used to be springboards for learning about their contributions to our nation. Terribly sad how we’ve given up our culture.
