Redoubt's Student Handbook's Policy on Clothing, Cold Weather and Outdoor Recess
Students should come to school dressed for the weather and prepared to go outside. All children go outside for recess until the chill factor temperature is minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Generally, any child well enough to come to school is well enough to go outside for recess. Even shortened recesses give the children a much needed break in routine and fresh air. A child too sick to go outside should be recuperating at home. When special circumstances exist, students may be allowed to remain indoors for recess with a doctor's note.
Boots are essential for outdoor recess. A pair of shoes should be kept at school to wear inside the building. Sitting with boots on all day is not healthy for feet. Students should have a heavy winter weight coat, snow pants or snowsuit, warm hat or hood, winter boots and gloves or mittens.
Student Messages/End of Day Procedure
A reminder that all parents must call the office with a change of plans for students by 2:30. Please, do not Dojo or text your teacher regarding messages or releasing a student early. For safety reasons these messages will not be honored. All information must go through the office. We try very hard to keep everyone safe and going home according to everyone's plans. Our teachers are very busy at the end of the day going over their daily work and getting their students ready to go where they need to be. Our busses arrive by 3:20 and our students start to load at that time.
Please remember that all calls after 2:45 go directly to our voicemail, so please leave a message and we will get to them once all earlier messages have been taken care of. Thank you for your understanding as we try our best to make sure all our students get home safe.
Redoubt's Annual PTA Fall Carnival
Redoubt's Annual PTA Carnival will be held
November 2nd from 12:00-4pm.
We are asking parents or community members to help in donating themed classroom baskets.
A letter on classroom themed baskets will be coming home today, Friday, Oct. 4th. All baskets can be brought to the office. Please make sure your classroom name in on each basket.
Baskets are due by Parent/Teacher conferences, Oct. 24th and 25th. Thank you for you kind generosity in helping our school with their annual carnival.
