Brrrrrrr!

It is going to be chilly this week! Thank you all so much for sending your children to school with warm jackets, hats, gloves, etc.! It sounds like we may get snow this week or next. During the winter months on snow-accumulating days, students may play in the snowy field only if they have winter boots and snowpants. If they do not, they must play on the blacktop or Big Toy. Your child needs to know how to put on and take off their own snow clothing. Please practice at home with zippers and the like as it makes preparing for recess so much easier!
