School Holiday on 15 December 2025 (Monday): Schools Closed in THESE States, Check Details Here

For parents and students seeking clarity on whether classes will be held tomorrow, the official word is clear: Monday, December 15th, 2025, is scheduled as a regular working day for educational institutions throughout India. This date is not marked by any national festival, religious observance, or scheduled government public holiday. Therefore, schools across all boards—state, CBSE, and ICSE—are expected to operate normally, focusing on core academic activities, syllabus completion, and scheduled examinations.

While the vast majority of the country will see a typical Monday, those residing in regions prone to extreme weather should remain alert. Any unexpected closure would be solely due to localized, last-minute safety orders issued by the District Administration—such as those prompted by severe cold waves, dense fog, or sudden heavy rain in coastal areas. Unless your specific school communicates an emergency shutdown, plan for a full day of instruction as preparation for the upcoming end-of-year winter breaks begins.
