Spring Reminders
- No flip-flops, backless sandals, high heels, wedges, etc. They inhibit play outside, and are not safe on school stairs.
- No spaghetti straps. Bellies and backs may not be exposed by shirts that creep up and pants that sag. Sleeveless shirt straps should be three fingers wide.
- Shorts and skirts must be must be at least fingertip length.
- Shirts with negative messages undermine our school-wide goal of respect for self, others, our community, and are not allowed.
Warm weather also means that our students start to ride bikes, skateboards, and scooters to school. Please remember that all children must wear helmets, and bikes need to be locked!
