KENTUCKY — Most public schools across Kentucky will close on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, in observance of Veterans Day, a federal holiday honoring all U.S. military veterans who have served in the Armed Forces.
The day will be marked nationwide with ceremonies, parades, and community events recognizing the dedication and sacrifice of service members. Across Kentucky, districts traditionally close schools to give students, staff, and families the opportunity to participate in these observances.
Many communities will host wreath-laying ceremonies, parades, and assemblies organized by veterans’ groups, civic organizations, and schools. In the days leading up to the holiday, several schools have held educational programs and recognition events to help students learn about the history and significance of Veterans Day.
Some high schools and elementary schools also welcomed guest speakers from local veterans organizations, including the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), to share their experiences and inspire civic appreciation.
While most schools will remain closed on Tuesday, a few districts may still host optional public events or community ceremonies. Families are encouraged to check with their local district for details on scheduled observances.
