schools should not close for any "religious" observance.  Fuck 'em.  Go pray on your own time.

The Hindus should protest too, as they seem to have about 400+ holidays a year.

No school meals during Ramadan!  It tempts the muslim students to break their fast!!

The Jewish kids need the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, the Feast of Ingathering, and Passover off for their religious holidays.  

The Chinese kids get holidays galore.
