In this sense, according to the schedule, students of all levels (3-k through 12th grade) will have a new long weekend in September, due to the school holiday set for Monday the 21st.

Why there are no classes in the schools on Monday, September 21

The NYCPS schedule established that the different educational levels began classes last Thursday, September 10.

Within the same month, students will have an additional day off, given that Yom Kippur is observed on September 21, so the educational institutions in the district will be closed.
