The schools are going to see massive absenteeism anyway at this point. It's not really the Democrat vs. Republican thing (although MD and Montgomery county went fairly strongly Democratic as usual). It's the history of electing a black man, and the large margins of the election (compared with the most recent ones). The discussions of days off were similar for Reagan.
Tomorrow, the school board is meeting and discussing it and voting on it.
The trip for the 200th anniversary was at a small private school, not the public school system.
The public school system is such an unwieldy beast. So many students, teachers, aides, buses, lunches, etc. to be considered.
