New York City students in both public and Catholic schools will have off from classes for two days next week.<\/p>\n
Schools will be closed on Thursday, Nov. 27, and Friday, Nov. 28, for Thanksgiving recess \u2014 offering an extended weekend for students due to the holiday break.<\/p>\n
It means that students will attend classes Monday through Wednesday next week. Then, they will have off on Thanksgiving Day on Thursday, Nov. 27, and the following day on Friday, Nov. 28, which is also known as Black Friday.<\/p>\n
Students return to class on Monday, Dec. 1. <\/p>\n
Both public and Catholic school students will need to wait a bit for their next day off, but the wait will be worth it for winter recess.<\/p>\n
The break will begin for both public and Catholic school students on Christmas Eve, or Dec. 24.<\/p>\n
Classes will resume after winter recess in the new year on Monday, Jan. 5. <\/p>\n
The public school academic calendar<\/a> includes some two dozen days off between the first day and the last day of classes.<\/p>\n The calendar gives time off every year for religious holidays like Good Friday, Yom Kippur and Eid al-Fitr, and week-long breaks for winter recess, mid-winter recess and spring recess, which include Christmas and Passover. Diwali has also been added recently as a public school holiday.<\/p>\n The school calendar also allows time off each year for Italian Heritage Day\/Indigenous Peoples\u2019 Day (Columbus Day), Election Day, Thanksgiving, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Memorial Day and Juneteenth. Dates for parent-teacher conference days for elementary, middle schools and high schools are also posted in the calendar.<\/p>\n You can go here to view more important dates for the 2025-2026 public school academic year.<\/a><\/p>\n The Archdiocese of New York Superintendent of Schools calendar for Catholic elementary school students on Staten Island also includes time off for religious and federal holidays.<\/p>\n Here are important dates for the 2025-2026 Catholic school academic year.<\/a><\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
