Solar Eclipse: What to Expect at MRH

An exciting astronomical event is coming on April 8, 2024! The southeast region of Missouri will experience a total solar eclipse. Here in Maplewood and Richmond Heights, almost all of the sun will be covered by the moon. The deepest part of the eclipse will occur at about 2 p.m.

At no point during the eclipse is it safe to view without safety glasses. All MRH students and staff will receive eclipse viewing glasses at no cost.

We want to ensure all students have the opportunity to participate in this event in a safe manner. Students will be permitted to view the eclipse in a supervised setting in a short time frame. The eyeglasses we provide are made especially for viewing a solar eclipse and meet all applicable safety requirements. At no time should students or participants remove their eclipse glasses and look directly at the sun as it could cause permanent eye damage. Students who normally wear eyeglasses will need to wear the eclipse glasses over their normal eyewear.

In the coming weeks, families will receive more specific information from MRH administrators regarding student activities surrounding this historic event.
