The weather is very cold. Elementary students must have a hat & gloves, in order to go outside for recess. Please make sure you are sending these with your student(s) daily. The handbook states: Temperature & wind chill factor must be 5 degrees or above to be outdoors. Other factors will be considered. We use www.weather.com as a guideline. Students are required to wear coats if it is below 55 degrees, hats and gloves below 32 degrees. The “feels like” temperature will be used to determine this. If students do not have proper clothing, they may not be able to attend outside
recess that day. If your child is in need of a coat, hat, or gloves, please reach
out to the school.
