In most public schools, even Christmas is not celebrated and is incorporated in "winter break".
Special accommodations for muslims?
Hell no; although NYC Mayor de Blasio caved and has included 2 muslim holidays for New York schools.
For Muslims, it signals acceptance. "When these holidays are recognized, its a sign that Muslims have a role in the political and social fabric of America," said Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, to the New York Times.
The fool de Blasio doesn't recognize the creeping sharia.

Absolutely American pubic schools should close on Muslim holidays.
Right after madrassas in Mecca start closing for Christmas, Good Friday, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

No. Separation of religion and state, remember? We shouldn’t be recognizing religions from h3ll.

AMERICA will be great again....
But not great for Islam.
I like the Japan approach to Muslims.

No! They lost all credibility on 9/11. But of course the dhimmis will provide them with everything.

Should schools do what taxpayers want, for instance to protect the constitution?

Absolutely they should close for Muslim holidays.
And, stay closed for the balance of Radical Islamist Hunting Season.
That way, our kids won’t miss out on their education. Best of all, there’s no bag limit.

Yes, and the cafeteria should serve free bacon, pork rinds and Mohammad-BombHead© brandied chocolate truffles all week.

Politicians and the MSM always will bend over for mussies - I guess 9/11 meant nothing at all to them.
