Severe Weather Lesson Information - Families Please Read!
You should have received information from your student's classroom teacher about a folder with Severe Weather Lesson Plans. Teachers were directed to send home plans to families in case of severe weather days.

The Severe Weather Lesson Plans are for days when school is canceled due to severe weather.  

If school is canceled due to snow or extreme cold, your child will need to complete one packet and return it to school when school resumes.  

There are 2 packets. There is only one packet planned for each Severe Weather Day. Please do not have your child do 2 packets in one day.

For now, please just keep the packets in a safe place. The packets are ONLY if school is canceled. If you have any questions contact your student's teacher.
