Jackson, NJ – Jackson School District officials have decided to keep schools open for the remainder of the normal school day despite an unexpected shift in the weather that brought heavier snowfall to the area. Initially predicted to stay north of Jackson, the snow has moved south, impacting high school and middle school students who were either already in school or on their way.
The district has been closely monitoring the weather conditions, which are expected to improve by 1 p.m., with temperatures staying above freezing and anticipated to rise. This decision was made to ensure the safety and well-being of all students, allowing time for clearing sidewalks and parking lots and for salt trucks to make the necessary rounds.
Officials have not changed after-school or evening activities but continue to watch the situation closely. Updates regarding any schedule alterations will be communicated to parents and staff through the district’s website and via phone and email alerts.
