How can I have a scheduled SQL job skip certain days (e.g., holidays)?
 
You would need to manually change the schedule to not run on holidays.

Or create a table with a list of dates that you don't want the job to run on. Have the first step of the job query that table, and it the current date is in the table stop the job via the sp_stop_job procedure.
