The purpose of the action was to be inclusive of everyone who may not identify with the stripped holidays. These days would simply be listed as &#8220;days off&#8221;. The school board claimed that this decision was based on input; however, there is a petition out calling for resignations.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From Human Events:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Holidays including Thanksgiving, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Christmas will be stripped from the calendar.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think really it is the board&#8217;s responsibility to be naming these holidays. Either take them off or just adopt whatever the federal and state governments are doing,&#8221; board member Ronald Conti said.<\/p>\n<p>The board claimed that they made the decision to remove holiday names after receiving feedback from the community. However, as of Monday morning, over 2,400 people signed a petition calling for the board and the district&#8217;s superintendent, Jennifer Fano, to resign.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jen Fano and all of the Board of Education have disgraced our community and clearly do not have the best interests of our children in anything they do,&#8221; the petition states. &#8220;They represent everything that is wrong in education today and are completely incompetent in every aspect of their role.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The petitions goal is 2,500 signatures.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Human Events has more information <a href=\"https:\/\/humanevents.com\/2021\/06\/14\/school-board-cancels-holidays-removes-all-names-from-calendar-to-be-more-inclusive\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A school board decided to strip holiday names from the school calendar.
