National Skip School Day is observed in the United States every December 2. This unofficial holiday, which began gaining traction on TikTok in the fall of 2019, encourages American teenagers to skip school. The movement started with teenage users creating videos that urged their peers to participate, leading to significant engagement on social media platforms, including over 2 million views for the hashtag #2December. While the tradition of skipping school is not new, with seniors often participating in similar events like Senior Skip Day, National Skip School Day has emerged as a distinct observance. The attitude of school administrations towards this day varies, with some schools outright discouraging it while others may accommodate students by avoiding scheduling quizzes or exams.
