NY Muslims want Eid on school calendar
[Al Arabiya Latest] Muslim students, parents, and activists are calling upon lawmakers in the state of New York to add two of their holidays to school calendars.

After failing to convince New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg of adding the two major Muslim holidays, the Lesser and Greater Bairams, to the list of official holidays in public schools, hundreds of Muslims launched a campaign hoping the state Senate and Assembly would supersede the mayor's decision.
