The Lake Zurich High School Women in STEAM Club is hosting a free Science Fair for students in grades K-8 on Saturday, February 24th from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm at Lake Zurich High School. Students conduct their at-home self-directed science investigation prior to February 24th. During the Science Fair, they share the results of their at-home investigation with others. Click here to learn more about the Science Fair and register for the event.

With the weather we are experiencing, I want to take this opportunity to remind all of our families of our outdoor recess procedures. Building leaders use thirteen degrees (with windchill factored in) as the cutoff temperature for outdoor recess. If it is below thirteen degrees with the windchill, students will participate in recess indoors. Across the district, www.weather.com is used as the common weather reporting agency to determine current weather conditions by entering the zip code for each school.

Please note that other factors (such as ice on the path to the playground) unique to individual buildings may also impact the decision for outdoor recess.
