Cold Weather Requires Warm Clothing
It may seem like a no-brainer, but with the sudden cold temperatures comes a need for very warm outdoor clothing. We love to have the kids go outside and play during recess, but sweatshirts and shorts are just not enough. Please make sure students are coming to school with a jacket that will keep them warm for up to 25 minutes at recess. Gloves and hats are also recommended, as are boots and snow-pants once the flakes start to fall.
