Well... it isn't. The usual day off in France is, like in most historically Christian countries, Sunday.
On the other hand, some primary schools close on Wednesdays and work with children only four days a week. To make up for it, they have shorter holidays.
This scheme was implemented in a limited number of regions in France, just to see if children managed to learn more efficiently on a four-days-a-week basis. Following a government review, it was proven relatively ineffective and free Wednesdays might disappear next year.
Although assuming that the question is referring to this Wednesday (February 2), that particular day is La Chandeleur, which is celebrated with crêpes in France. La Chandeleur is otherwise known as Candlemas, or the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple.
