    As a Yemeni and Arabic person and as member of the community a recognition of of holidays such as Christmas, Thanksgiving and other holidays We would like to be recognized for our holidays such as Eids that causes celebration among the Arabic community as well
    We also suggest The opportunity and consideration of an employment among school activities for those who are bilingual in Arabic and English and their big role in educational system and assisting families as well, therefore I support this to be implemented very highly.
    Thank you,

    I support this resolution because it’s not fair only one religions holiday gets a break off of school but not all of them.

    I support the decision because it shows respect for one of the largest religions in the world, and the decision will address some of the misunderstanding of many within the American community towards Muslims and it will embody religious diversity within the community, which is in line with American principles

    These two holiday days are what they say. “Holidays”.... one celebrating the end of fast of month of Ramadan, and one celebrating the annual pilgrimage. The only two “Holidays” for Muslims. Muslims are not one ethnicity. Muslims come in all shapes and colors from the entire planet. OUSD has a large Muslim body of students in its schools. They too deserve to celebrate their Holidays. M
    Support Life Foundation, an OUSD official partner Organization.
