Many of our public schools have gotten so politically correct that real learning is sacrificed. Locally, at Cross Keys HS, in the midst of major bunches of Latinos, Asians, etc. (probably 25% white), they have almost monthly festivals celebrating the holidays of Mexico, Korea, Japan, Hawaii, etc. The greatest American holiday, Christmas, is totally ignored. Not a tree in the building.

I always thought that the 4th of July or Thanksgiving were the great American holidays... whereas Christmas being one of the great Christian holidays.
