It's definitely still a school holiday.
- wlesieutre 8y agoCan confirm. My office is open but coworkers have taken the day off because their kids are home from school. I know some places are celebrating the same day as Indigenous Peoples' Day instead.
- idontpost 8y agoThis varies from state to state.
- jay-anderson 8y agoThat depends. The district my kids are in avoids the issue by creating a fall break for the full week that just happens to cover Columbus day.
- jjeaff 8y agoI grew up in a very conservative, southern, rural area. And we had fall break and never any mention of Columbus Day. In other words, if you called fall break Columbus day, no one would have cared. It just didn't come up. So I don't think revering Columbus has much to do with conservative vs liberal as much as certain ethnic groups like Italian Americans claiming him as one of their own.
- okmokmz 8y agoThe school I attended celebrates indigenous peoples day, not colombus day
