JACKSON, N.J. — The Jackson School District announced a two-hour delayed opening for Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2025, citing concerns over freezing road conditions caused by overnight low temperatures.
According to district officials, moisture on roads is expected to freeze overnight, creating potentially hazardous travel conditions for students and staff. The delayed opening will allow extra time for road salting and treatments to ensure safer commutes.
Under the two-hour delay schedule, students should arrive at their bus stops and schools two hours later than their usual times. Additionally, the district confirmed there will be no AM Child Care services during the delay.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to refer to the district’s School Hours page for details on program and school schedules. Those attending programs through the Ocean County Vocational Technical School (OCVTS) should consult the full announcement for updated information.
The delay comes as schools across the region respond to weather-related challenges caused by winter conditions.
