Just a reminder, there is no school this Friday, November 10 in observance of the Veterans day. School resumes Monday at the usual time.
Dear Parents,
It is that time of year again where the weather is changing. This is just a quick and friendly reminder to please send your child to school dressed for the elements. We will be sending students outside when appropriate (please refer to our handbook for the chart that shows when students will go outside for recess). Students need to make sure they are dressed with long sleeves, pants, socks, shoes and also coats, hats, and gloves. Please remember that the schools have the right to keep any student inside for recess if they feel the clothing is inappropriate for the elements.
Student safety is our highest priority and part of that is making sure they are dressed appropriately for being outside in the elements.
If you have any questions, please call the school office (217-324-4034)
