MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP, N.J. — All schools in the Manchester Township School District will operate on a 90-minute delayed opening schedule on Tuesday, Jan. 7, due to freezing temperatures and melt-off from Monday’s weather conditions.

District officials stated that the decision was made to ensure the safety of students and staff as overnight temperatures are expected to create icy road conditions.

Morning programs, including before-school activities and the A.M. Y Kids program, are canceled for Tuesday. Parents and guardians can find details on delayed school start times and bus pick-up schedules on the district’s official website.

This schedule adjustment follows similar precautions taken by neighboring school districts in response to winter weather hazards.

Freezing overnight conditions have prompted delays across the region as districts prioritize safe travel for students and staff.
