When Wicca became known as a religion members complained that traditional fairy tales portraying witches as wicked were discriminatory, so public schools stopped sharing them. Does that mean Halloween is a religious holiday? Should public schools stop letting kids celebrate it? If so, what holidays will be left for children to enjoy in school?

I asked this same question to my school Principal. We call Halloween a "character parade" at my school. Why celebrate it if you're going to change the name? It defeats the purpose...
Thanks, Nicoline.
