Hillsdale Schools Delayed Thursday Due To Weather

HILLSDALE, NJ — Hillsdale Public Schools have decided to delay classes Thursday morning because of snow and rain in the forecast.

The National Weather Service said that rain or a mix of rain and snow are likely before 4 a.m. Snow will continue until the noon hour Thursday, and will likely be under two inches of accumulation. The timing of the predicted snowfall makes the commute to school more difficult.

Meadowbrook and Smith Schools begin at 10:30 a.m. and George White begins at 9:40 a.m.

Morning pre-kindergarten will be from 10:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. and afternoon pre-kindergarten runs from 1:10 - 3:10 p.m.

Lunch will be served at all three schools.
