Coat and Jacket Weather for 3K-3rd Grade
We have decided to start a 3K-3rd grade threshold for wearing coats outside. It is very windy on the playground. Students must wear a coat/jacket outside for recess if the temperature is below 50 . When the temperature is between 50-60 at least long sleeves. We will certainly use judgement for the days that the sun is out and the wind is low and coats/jackets may not be necessary. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, 3K-3rd Grade Staff
