K-5 SPRING CONCERTS UPDATES- MARK AND ADJUST YOUR CALENDARS
K-5 Spring Concert Updates - Mark And Adjust Your Calendars
Parents - we originally had some K-5 music events slotted on the calendar coming up at the end of January and the beginning of February. We have been reviewing our offerings for the music program and working with Saber Center availability to adjust these events. Moving into the spring, we will be offering concert events for grades 1, 3, and 5 at the Saber Center this year. By offering this event, we hope to present a larger scope for families so they can experience the progress and growth across the grade levels. Therefore, grades K, 2, and 4 will not have a spring concert event this year.
Please mark your calendars for the following event later this spring:
SG Thursday, April 28 SG Grades 1, 3, 5 @ 6:30 pm at the Saber Center

COLD & RECESS
The decision to have an outdoor or indoor recess is based on both the wind speed and temperature. Students do not go outdoors if the temperature falls below 0 degrees with wind chill.
As a reminder, snow pants and boots are required to be worn in order for students to play in the snow. Students who do not bring these to school will not be allowed to play in the snow.
*When the hills near the playground are icy, students will be asked to stay off as a safety precaution
