No, it is not under copyright. It was written by James Pierpont (1822-1893) and so, allowing for the 70 year European copyright rule, (music being in copyright up to 70 years after the death of the composer), James Pierpont's music has been in the public domain for a long time.

The 19th-century Christmas carol is in the public domain, but certain arrangements, settings, performances, and recordings may still be protected.

There are many other works by this name, which obviously would have different rights.

The original work premiered in 1916, so it would not be protected, but many editions, arrangements, performances, and recordings are still protected.

Yes. You can still use it at school concerts, but you can't use it for commercial things or claim it is yours.

When was Jingle Bells written?

Jingle Bells" is one of the best-known and commonly sung winter songs in the world. It was written by James Lord Pierpont (1822-1893) and published under the title "One Horse Open Sleigh" in the autumn of 1857. Even though it is commonly thought of as a Christmas song, it was actually written and sung for Thanksgiving.[1] It was mistakenly branded as a Christmas song because being extremely popular at Thanksgiving, it was sung again around Christmas.
