References to Christmas, Easter, Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanahhave been stricken from next year’s school calendar in Montgomery County, MD. This was in response to Muslim demands that the school district give equal treatment to the Muslim holy day of Eid al-Adha
This stripping of all religious holidays off the calendar wasn’t exactly what Saqib Ali, former Maryland state delegate and member of the Equality for Eid Coalition, had hoped for.
“By stripping the names Christmas, Easter, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, they have alienated other communities now, and we are no closer to equality,” stated Ali. “It’s a pretty drastic step, and they did it without any public notification.”
The Maryland school district appears to have been battling the Muslims in their efforts by taking this action.

Shouldn’t give an inch. Taking out the Christmas and Easter does not appease them. It will be something else and and inch turns into the whole tent. We didn’t give in to other peoples demands others adjusted to our way of living.
HELL NO
what the hell is a matter with these people, do not give in, what next.
keep it Christian and get rid of the ‘infidel muslims’
Parents should pipe up and stop this nonsense. What the He44 is wrong with this school board??
Both my Children and their families live there . It sickens me.
Muslims do not have any right to demands. Why are we letting in to demands, this is America – Fight for your country people.!!!!
You can’t please everybody but to give in is totally wrong. This is America and we celebrate Christmas as well as Easter. We shouldn’t give in to Muslim demands. They are not a religeon of peace but of violence. The Quran is quite clear about non believv
easy solution – remove the officals of the school distric – throw them under the bus.
Pull your kids out of that school. Send a proper message.
