Cultural Holiday Awareness

Our school calendar is based on Christian holidays and US agricultural traditions. Many of our students come from countries where their native school calendars and holidays surrounded celebrations of equal importance to them but do not align to our US school schedule. 

This is a great time to learn about other cultures. However, these difference can sometimes impact student sucess and family relationships.

Below is a hyperlinked list of a few holidays with information to help schools both respect student's religious and cultural practices while also addressing school culture and needs.
