Ha ha funny....NOT!
That said, it sounds like the most METAL Elementary school assemblies.
Still stupid, though.
Growing up, in Elementary school, we used to learn about different festival traditions around the world during the Holiday Season. We'd lean about customs and foods. It was so cool! I looked forward to it every year.
Then, around 6th grade, they stopped that. In retrospect, I suspect the "Moral Majority's" hand in that. Killjoys!
ME AT AGE 11-12: "Hey! Aren't we gonna hear about stuff like Hanukkah, that Italian Christmas witch, That Christmas demon, make those Chinese Cookies (Crunchy Chinese noodles in chocolate, spooned onto a tray to cool and eaten, YUM!), that weird Chinese god statue that had honey put on his mouth and other stuff?"
TEACHER: "No. It's just vague Christmasy Holiday stuff like Santa and Reindeer."
ME: "Bummer!"
NOTE: I think Krampus and LaBefana are cool! I love the weird juxtaposition of Yuletide with stuff normally associated with Halloween. I like to imagine Befana as Mrs. Claus and Krampus as the Claus' scary-looking lovable bruiser bodyguard (like a demonic Yuletide Chewbacca) who punishes naughty kids with nightmares and coal for stockings. Said coal is Krampus Krap.
Krampus & Perchta are an item and Santa & Befana are an item.
"Santa" is a title and there's a number of Santas. At the North Pole dwells Santas Nick Claus and Befana Claus.
Zwarte Peit/Black Peter is changed from a goblin-like minstrel show black guy stereotype to a dashingly handsome, dignified, eternally young, ancient Ethiopian/Kushite Prince.
He can even be reinterpreted by Christians as the Ethiopian eunuch who becomes a Christian in The Book of Acts 8:25-40.
No longer a ghoulish Step Fetchit guy, he'll be practically equal to Santa, Santa's adviser/Royal Vizer and the Head of The Elves.
I should write a cool Yuletide fantasy, man. Maybe I'll become the next Clement Clarke Moore!
