• Snow Leads To Delayed Opening For Brick Schools (patch.com) — Families in Brick can plan for a slower Monday morning after the school district announced a two-hour delayed opening due to seven inches of weekend snow and lingering icy roads. Officials say the hazardous conditions prompted the schedule change and the cancellation of the morning BEST program, giving students and staff extra time to travel safely.
