This bill amends current law to provide additional support for State employees and students observing the Islamic holidays of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. Specifically, it allows full-time State employees to take one additional day of administrative leave per calendar year for each holiday without it counting against their standard leave allotment. The bill also mandates that public school students who are absent due to the observance of these holidays will have their absences recorded as excused.

Furthermore, the legislation ensures that such absences will not negatively impact students' academic records, as they will not be included on transcripts or applications. If a student presents a written excuse from a parent or guardian, they will retain their eligibility for awards and the opportunity to take alternate tests or examinations missed due to their absence. Overall, this bill aims to promote inclusivity and respect for religious observances within State employment and public education systems.
