Cold Weather is Here
Cold weather is here. Please make sure your child has the appropriate cold-weather attire (coat, hat, gloves, boots & snow pants). When snow arrives, students must wear snow pants and boots to play on the playground or any other snow-covered area during recess. During the winter months, boots must be worn when playing on the blacktop, even if it has been cleared of snow.
