Islamic Holidays Forced On American Students, But Then THIS Happened When Muslim families in Montgomery County started pressuring the schools district to add Islamic holidays to the calendarthey were faced with a tricky decision. Montgomery County is the largest school district in Maryland, with around 156,000 students. In a decision to accommodate Muslim families, the school will now be closing school for Eid al-Adha on September 12, 2016. The decision comes after many years of heated debate, and to the outrage of many parents of students attending school in the district. Still, the district is standing by their decision, claiming that the day may be used as an in-service day for teachers. What do you think? Is this absolutely outrageous?
