Sometimes it's more of an issue with labor contracts than anything else.

Jewish students only make up a tiny percentage of student in the NYC public schools, for example ... but the schools are still closed for major Jewish holidays. This is because there are a lot of Jewish faculty and staff in those schools, so the teacher's union negotiates these holidays in their labor contracts.
