Emergency Information/Closings
School Opening and Closing Times
It is the practice of the Secaucus School District to keep schools open on a regular basis despite
inclement weather. However, severe storms, which cause heavy snow accumulations, will force
the closing of schools. Sometimes we are faced with a light snow that creates hazardous road
conditions during the early morning hours. In instances such as this, the district will delay the opening
of school by two hours and bus routes will be adjusted accordingly. A delayed opening allows the
safe operation of our school system since most commuter traffic has dissipated and the roads have
been cleared by the Department of Public Works. Hopefully, this will minimize the number of days
school will be closed during the winter season.
