Late start for Beaufort, Jasper schools Monday. Here’s when classes begin

Several schools in Beaufort and Jasper counties will delay school start times Monday morning because of concerns over road conditions stemming from last week’s snow.

Beaufort County School District schools and the district office will operate on a two-hour delay Monday, according to a news release. Buses will run routes two hours later than normal.

While a news release did not mention weather and roads as a factor, district spokesman Jim Foster confirmed Sunday evening that these were the reasons behind the decision to delay school.

Bridges Prep will follow Beaufort County School District’s schedule as well, according to a school news release.

John Paul II will start school at 10 a.m., according to a school news release.

Jasper County Public Schools will also be getting a late start Monday, according to a school district release. Elementary schools will start at 9:30 a.m., while middle and high schools will begin at 10:30 a.m.
