Students should be coming to school dressed for cold weather. Boots, heavy coats, mittens and hats make recess much more enjoyable.
Students are now required to wear their masks to their classroom in the morning and again in the afternoon when leaving the school for dismissal. Everyone should have 2 clean masks with them each day in case one gets lost or dirty. A clean mask = a healthy mask, washing them each night is a great practice in our new normal.
