Reversing a decision to remain closed until Nov. 12, educators announced that the Lakehurst School District will reopen on Tuesday, Nov. 6.
The borough's elementary school will open on a 90-minute delay Tuesday, Superintendent of Schools Jill Dobrowansky said. No breakfast will be served, but lunch will be available.
Wednesday will be a regular, full day of school for students. Though originally scheduled to be closed on Thursday and Friday for the New Jersey Education Association convention, Lakehurst students will have class those days though they will be dismissed at 12:25 p.m. Breakfast will be available, but there will be no lunch or transportation, Dobrowansky said.
