Winter Weather
We ask that all students are sent to school with proper winter wear each day. Please review our weather conditions for outdoor recess below.
Weather Conditions
Students will play outdoors when:
Temperatures are above 25℉ with consideration given to wind chill factor (www.weather.com)
There is light precipitation (e.g. snow flurries, drizzle)
Snow is on the ground, depending upon how different play areas are affected
Playground/Field Conditions
Students will be permitted to use playground equipment, fields, and asphalt play areas when conditions are suitable for safe play. Safety considerations included:
Equipment that is dry and ice free
Fields that are not muddy or icy and asphalt play areas that are not icy
Snow that is not deep enough to inhibit students walking/running
