Veterans Day

Veterans Day, November 11, honors all who have served in the US armed forces.

History

Originally Armistice Day marking the end of WWI on November 11, 1918, it was renamed Veterans Day in 1954. Unlike Memorial Day, the date does not move; the federal observance shifts only when November 11 falls on a weekend.

On academic calendars

Most public schools observe Veterans Day with a single-day closure or a school-wide ceremony in lieu of normal classes. The day is typically already a holiday on K-12 calendars.

Dates by year

Below is the full schedule for Veterans Day from 2020 through 2035. The "observed" date matches the actual date in most years; it differs only when the statutory date lands on a Saturday or Sunday, in which case federal offices observe the holiday on the adjacent weekday per OPM rules.
