All Brimhall students have outdoor recess every day. Unless the actual or wind chill temperature is below zero, the principal will decide if classes will go outside or remain inside.

Your child/ren should be dressed for the weather. We recommend all winter gear (boots, hats, mittens, snowpants & jacket) for the next four months.

If your family needs help obtaining winter gear, please contact our Social Worker, Micheal Stanefski at michael.stanefski@isd623.org.

• December 20th: All School Bunco & Last day before Winter Break
• December 23-January 5th, 2025 Winter Break No School

A reminder on attendance as we start Trimester 2:

• Research shows that consistent attendance at school correlates with student achievement. In fact, missing 10% (or about 18 days) of a school year increases the chance that your student will not read or master math at the same level as their peers.

• Coming to school on time is important because it allows students to be part of the classroom community and to prepare for the day's learning activities.

• It’s important to stay until the end of every day because academic instruction continues in classrooms until dismissal.

• Thank you for scheduling appointments before or after school when possible. If your student has regularly scheduled appointments, please submit a note from the provider stating when and how long the therapy will continue.

• Winter is coming! If you decide to keep your child home due to poor road conditions or bad weather, you must notify the attendance office. The absence will then be excused, and we will know your child is safe and not stuck or lost outside in the bad weather.

• Remember to call in absences every single day that a student is not in school. (And then each school can include their numbers)
