We are asking parents to please make sure your child(ren) have layers and a coat daily. Just a double check in the morning will help ensure the kiddos stay warm and dry while outside at recess.
Thank you!

Thank you.
CDC recommendations & cleaning masks daily
The CDC has updated their information on the importance of wearing masks during the pandemic. Visit this site to see what they are suggesting for double masking, the fit of masks and why it is so important that we all continue to wear our masks in public. Thanks for checking this out Click here
I am so proud of our students at LaMotte for wearing their masks willingly and consistently! Please remember that masks should be CLEANED each day and when the kids are outside their masks often get wet so please send them with more than one clean mask each day. Thank you - we are all doing our best to keep everyone healthy. Your efforts have been remarkable and so appreciated. Thank you for working with us.
