Solar Eclipse: April 8th
On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. A total solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun. The sky will darken as if it were dawn or dusk.— starting around 2:09 p.m., and reaching maximum dimness at about 3:25 p.m. (the eclipse will end around 4:37 p.m.).
Special solar eclipse glasses have been ordered for the staff and students. Due to this occurring during the end of 8th period and dismissal teachers have the choice on whether or not they want to experience this with students or students can experience this at home with their family.
- If teachers choose to take students outside and a family DOES NOT want their child to participate, please notify your child's last period teacher as soon as possible. Students who refuse to wear the glasses will not be permitted to participate.
The solar eclipse glasses are being given for students to use with their families as well, if you chose to use the glasses at home.
