If you know your child is sensitive to the sun or will be exposed to the sun for extended periods of time on a field trip, etc., please take the precautions you normally would if your child was at home with you. The child may apply sunscreen at school as long as the process is not disruptive to class activities or you may prefer your child wear clothing that protects them from the sun. Please know that school personnel will not be allowed to apply sunscreen to your children nor remind them to do so.
