Sandy: Cedar Grove Schools Closed Tuesday

Cedar Grove School District officials announced via Nixle a short while ago district schools will be closed Tuesday, Oct. 30 because of Hurricane Sandy.

The district will determine whether schools will be opened on Wednesday on Tuesday night.

Here is the district's message from the website:
