I think both are grammatically correct.

I have my school fees to be paid on my mind, and December is in my mind.

if something is “on your mind”, it preoccupies your mind and gives concerns and keep worrying about it.

If something is “in your mind, it is just in your mind with no worry and concern.

In short, on your mind = in your mind + worry/concern

They are both somewhat correct but are used in different context.

When using YOUR, you use ON..so it becomes 'on your mind'

Without YOUR, you use IN..so it becomes 'in mind'

Have you ever wondered why Facebook comment box says "what's on your mind?"
On your mind means what you have in mind currently.
In your mind means something that is there but not currently.
