*Reminder*
Please make sure your children are dressed appropriately for winter weather. Up to this point, it hasn't been bad, but temperatures are frigid this week.
Please send kids to school with warm hat, gloves, and winter coat each day. We also advise snow pants for elementary age children. This advice is for all students whether you ride bus, drive, or get a ride to school or activities. We want all our kids to get to school warm and to stay safe in event of a winter emergency!
Thank you!!
