Declares Pulaski Day a school holiday
This bill adds the last Friday in October (Pulaski Day) to the list of required school holidays in New York State. It directly affects public schools, requiring them to be closed on this day each year, alongside other established holidays like Asian Lunar New Year and Diwali. The key mechanism is an amendment to education law that explicitly includes Pulaski Day in the calendar of non-school days, aligning it with existing observances. This change does not alter school funding or operations beyond the mandated closure.
