Recess
We go outside for recess as long as the “feels like” temperature is 10 degrees. Please ensure that your student has the appropriate winter gear for recess. Students are not allowed to play in the snow without snow pants, boots, coat, and gloves.
Bathroom Issues
We have been experiencing some issues with inappropriate use of the bathroom at school. We are addressing it through reteaching but we also ask that you speak to your child at home about appropriate bathroom expectations at school.
Winter Break
The school building will be closed for winter break from Monday, December 25th to Friday, January 5th. Classes resume for staff and students on Monday, January 8th. Enjoy the time off with your families!
