Dressing for the Weather
|
|
With the summer now fading, we ask that families please be sure to send children in with appropriate weather gear. As you are aware, the children go outside unless the temperature is below 20 degrees and/or there is inclement weather (rain, snow). Good footwear and outer wear are key for a positive recess experience. Thanks for your help in making that happen!
