St. Joseph School follows the decision of the Carteret Board of Education concerning school closings and early dismissals. When weather or emergency conditions necessitate a delayed opening of the school or that the school be closed for the day will be issued. Notification will be sent out via the Honeywell Instant Alert system.
If your district has delayed opening for the public school students, your transportation to St. Joseph School will be delayed. Your child will not be marked late because of such a delay. On days that our school has a delayed opening, we will begin school at 9:15am.
If for any emergency reason it should become necessary to dismiss the students prior to the regular dismissal time, notification will be sent out via the Honeywell Instant Alert System.
On delayed opening days, please arrive at 9:15am. There is NO morning care on delayed opening days. Upon entering the school, students will go directly to their classroom. If you arrive via the morning bus, your pick up time will be 1 1/2 hours later than the usual time.
