Emergency Closing Day Updates
Posted on 02/11/2025
Alert

The Trenton Public School District is closely monitoring the potential inclement weather tomorrow and Thursday. As of today, Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2025, the district has not used any of the 3 built-in emergency closing days. The district is planning to be CLOSED on Monday, Feb. 17, 2025, unless an emergency forces schools and offices to close for more than one day. District administrators will continue to communicate with our families if anything changes, as needed.


The NJ Primary Election scheduled on Tuesday, June 3, has been moved to Tuesday, June 10, by the governor’s office. Due to this change, our third emergency closing day will be moved to June 10. The district calendar will be updated to reflect this change.



Emergency Closing Day Information:
