  • Holidays & Festivals
    RELIGIOUS AND ETHNIC OBSERVANCES American Conference on Diversity Calendar The is a resource designed to encourage public awareness of the great diversity of religious and ethnic groups that live in the United States. Holidays and festivals are included for many religious, ethnic and public occasions. Teachers may find the calendar particularly helpful as it identifies opportunities for objective, non-creedal instruction about particular cultures. Employers will find that it serves as a reminder of those religious observances that may result in employee absences. Those using this calendar also should remember that it is based only on information available at the time of pro - duction. In particular, dates for lunar holidays are subject to change. American Conference on Diversity Calendar The is intended to increase our sensitivity to each other and to our different needs. However, the list is not exhaustive of the observances of any one religion. Therefore, those using this resource in a classroom or employer setting may wish to add holidays and observances that are not listed in this calendar, but are celebrated by stu - dents in their school or colleagues in their workplace.
