In the United States, most schools are not closed on Rosh Hashanah.

Some do, some do not. It all depends on the demographic of the school. If there is a large chunk of students that celebrate the holiday, then school will most likely close on Rosh Hashanah because enough students will miss school that day that it would be more efficient to close for the day.

In Israel, schools do not usually open until after all of the Tishrei holidays, which means that school is closed on Rosh Hashanah.
