This petition is ONLY for Rockaway Township residents and property owners.
We, the undersigned residents and or property owners in Rockaway Township, support the closure of Rockaway Township Public Schools for students on Eid ul-Fitr and Eid ul-Adha. The dates for these holidays can be found on the New Jersey Department of Education's list of Holidays Permitting Pupil Absence, as provided by the Council of American Islamic Relations and confirmed by the Islamic Center of Morris County.
We respectfully request that the Rockaway Township Board of Education approve these holidays in their future school calendars to accommodate the religious observances of our community.
