Gloucester County Public Schools Two-Hour Delay After careful evaluation by our road assessment team, we have determined that packed snow and ice on some back neighborhood roads make travel difficult. For the safety of our students and staff, Gloucester County Public Schools will operate on a two-hour delay on Monday, January 13, 2025. Nighttime temperatures this week are expected to remain below freezing, which may contribute to icy conditions. Please remind your student to dress in layers to stay warm and comfortable throughout the day. We will continue to monitor road conditions early in the morning to ensure everyone’s safety. Your well-being is always our top priority, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this winter weather together. Stay safe and warm! Anthony Vladu, Ed.D. Gloucester County Public Schools Superintendent
