Is school closed tomorrow? (Nov. 11, 2022)

Veterans Day falls on Friday, Nov. 11 this calendar year which means many businesses will be giving their employees the day off in recognition of the holiday designed to honor our nation’s military veterans.

While most of us pay close attention to our company holidays in looking to keep track of what days we have off, it can be more difficult at times to know how the holidays will affect other businesses and individuals including kids still in school.

There are some bigger holidays where schools close across the nation such as Christmas and Thanksgiving, but it’s not always as easy to know if schools across the US also close for holidays such as Veterans Day.

As such, many are likely wondering whether there will still be school on Friday, Nov. 11 or whether schools are closed on Veterans Day in observance of the holiday.

Are schools closed on Veterans Day 2022?

Veterans Day is a federal holiday which means that almost certain places like the post office and banks will be closed on Nov. 11 for the holiday; however, not all schools will be closing their doors on Friday in observance of Veterans Day.

Veterans Day is not a holiday all school districts recognize which means while many schools will be closing their doors on Friday for the holiday, there are others that will remain open and operate during normal hours.

Because school closures for the Veterans Day holiday will vary by district and state, it’s best to check with your school or district website to confirm whether there will be school on Veterans Day.

By visiting your school district’s official site, you should be able to easily identify what holidays the district gives students off as most school websites will include a holiday calendar to help parents and guardians identify whether Veterans Day is recognized by your school.

You can also often find closing information on social media accounts for your school district as many school districts are on Twitter and Facebook.
