Montgomery County calendar drops religious holiday names
Maryland's largest school district removed all religious holiday names from the calendar amid debate over including Eid al Adha. Muslim activists had urged noting Eid with Yom Kip pur, but the board kept the calendar secular, drawing criticism from Christians, Jews, and Muslims. The district will still close for Christmas and Jewish holidays. CAIR and Eid campaign leaders condemn the move as suppression.
