Frigid Weather Expected Tomorrow
Drop off Procedures for Frigid Mornings
Please Consider the Following Guidelines for Frigid Weather Days
We are expecting frigid weather overnight tonight and tomorrow morning. Here are a few things to consider when getting ready for school each morning.
If the temperature is 10 degrees or lower (with or without wind chill), we will limit outdoor activities as much as possible and implement indoor recesses during the school day between 8:45am-3:15pm.
For before school drop-off , we strongly encourage parents not to drop students off prior to 8:30am when temperatures are below 20 degrees. We do not have an indoor space or supervision available at that time for indoor activities for all 366 of our amazing students, therefore, we recommend waiting to drop your child off until as close to 8:45am as possible.
Please follow these guidelines for frigid weather drop-offs:
- Drop your student off at 8:30 am if they are school breakfast eaters.
- Drop your student off between 8:35-8:45am if they do not eat breakfast at school.
- Bus riders arriving before 8:30am will be provided a warm space to wait until 8:30am at which time they will go to the playground until school begins at 8:45am.
Following the guidelines above will limit the time students have to wait outside before our 8:45am start time.
In addition:
- Dress in layers, bring your gloves, hats, boots and your heaviest coat.
- If your child is in need of winter gear, please call our main office or our school counselor, Mrs. Benfield, for assistance.
