Bethel's Homecoming Spirit Week is September 29th - October 3rd!
Dear GCPS Families,
This morning, updated flood models and new rainfall and river-gauge data have increased the projected risk of flooding in our area. To keep our students and staff safe, we are adjusting today’s dismissal schedule.
What Has Changed
• Forecasts now call for heavier rainfall across areas feeding into local creeks and rivers.
• River-gauge readings show rising water levels reaching thresholds for early flooding.
• The National Weather Service has issued updated flash-flood warnings for low-lying areas, particularly near bridges and roadways.
• Rain totals are expected to exceed earlier projections, with flooding risks arriving earlier in the day—during normal dismissal hours.
Adjusted Dismissal Times for Today
• Middle & High Schools: 12:15 PM
• Elementary Schools: 1:30 PM
What Families Should Do
• Please plan for earlier pickup times.
• Bus routes may be altered or delayed; check with your school or transportation coordinator.
• Walkers and parent pick-ups should avoid flood-prone routes.
• Continue to monitor GCPS communications (email, text alerts, website) for updates.
Thank you for your flexibility and understanding. The safety of our students, staff, and community remains our highest priority.
Sincerely,
Gloucester County Public Schools

As we approach the summer season, we want to ensure that children in our community have access to nutritious meals. Your feedback will help us better understand the needs of our families and plan accordingly.
Please take a moment to complete a brief survey to let us know if your household will be in need of summer meals for children. Your responses are valuable and will assist us in providing essential support during the summer months. The survey is linked on the division website banner.
