Then why do we get thanksgiving off? Government and nations pride should not coexist. Its the same concept as getting good friday off, just different belief.

I dont know how your holidays are structured in america but usually in england we have two weeks over easter off but as easter is earlier this year they have done somthing strange. We get friday until tuesday off (at least in my college we do) and then we go back for a week and a half then we have our normal two weeks off.

Yeah, what about that whole Era of Good Feelings thing? There was no separation of government and national pride there.

Yes, Born and raised in the U S of A, currently living in Southern California. But seriously, that's messed up if its true. Your allowed to have government and nations pride aka nation religion, coexist, but not Christianity or any other real religions?

wait..Christianity is a real religion just like Islam and Judaism and all the rest. Nations pride or just patriotism can affect the schooling schedule for students in america.

look, i don't even see thanksgiving as a "nation pride"hoiliday more of a historical holiday,like labor day or Columbus day. The reason religion can't in america because there are many various religions that reside in one country. How woul you justify letting one group of students getting out and the others not.

the only reason I think we get christmas and that area of the year off because many religions have long spanning holidays during that part of the year. Hanukkah,Kwanzaa,Christmas and i think winter solstice all happen around the same time.

Back in the day when I was a kid, we did have good friday off because our entire community was either Catholic(65%) or Lutheran(35%), so we just did have it off.

Its not something that everyone practices. Its a religious event, therefore it should have no standing as far as school being out for public schools. However catholic schools count it as easter vacation from what I remember.

I don't think it counts if you're in collage as those are private institutions. But as far as I'm aware both public and catholic schools have the 4-day weekend.
