Solar Eclipse - Monday, April 8th
We wanted to share some information about the upcoming solar eclipse occurring on Monday, April 8, 2024. A solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the sun and the earth, casting a shadow on the earth’s surface. In North St. Paul, the eclipse is expected to begin at 12:50 PM and conclude around 3:15 PM, with its peak occurring at 2:03 PM when the sun will be partially obscured by the moon.
Considering students may be outdoors for various school activities such as recess, it is important that they understand that looking directly at the sun without proper eye protection is unsafe. Ordinary sunglasses, even very dark ones, are not safe for looking at the sun.
While the weather forecasted for tomorrow may impact visibility of the eclipse, we request that parents review safety procedures with their children, emphasizing never to look directly at the sun without proper eye protection. On the day of the eclipse, our teachers and staff will closely monitor students and remind them of the importance of protecting their eyes.
For information about the solar eclipse visibility from North St Paul, check out this website.
