For the rest of the tri-state, many school districts will be closed for the day, but the decision could vary by location, so check with district website to see what schools are open or closed.The Department of Motor Vehicles locations for New York, New Jersey and Connecticut will be closed in observance of the holiday Monday, according to their respective websites.Most retailers, grocery stores and restaurants will be open and operating on regularly-scheduled hours.
