Brrrrrr!

Whether or Not...   Weather challenges will present themselves during the upcoming months whether we want them to or not.  We would like our students to be safe and comfortable no matter what the weather is outside.  

Parents/Guardians, please make sure that your child(ren) are dressing appropriately for being outside in the cold weather.  Gloves, hats and scarves along with boots or a change of shoes will help keep them warm and dry. 

Plan ahead.  With weather this time of year being unpredictable, please make sure you allow plenty of time to get to school in the morning.  Review after school plans with your child so they know what to do in cases where weather may cause family members to be delayed. 

Outdoor/Indoor Recess - If the temperature gets below +10 degrees Fahrenheit or if the wind chill factor drops below -15 degrees Fahrenheit, children will remain indoors during recess periods.  As our weather conditions are subject to change during the course of the day we recommend that your child be dressed for outdoor activity each day. 

Emergency School Closing -  In the event of a school closing due to weather conditions or other emergency, local television and radio stations will carry official notification.  Please do not call the school to inquire about closing.  This may overload the school phones so that important messages cannot be conveyed.
