Please share these reminders with your students:
Due to the number and variety of allergies in the building, students are reminded that there should be no eating on school buses. Also, just a reminder that we are a latex-aware building. With the holidays approaching, it is important to remember not to send toys and other items in to school that contain latex. We also cannot have poinsettias in the building. Thank you for your understanding and support in helping us maintain a safe environment for our students.
Students should be dressed appropriately for winter weather. We go outside for recess unless the wind chill is below 19 degrees.
