Cold Weather Guidelines

Hard to believe that the cold weather is already here!

The guidelines we use to determine if students will go outside for recess or have inside line-up for arrival are a combined temperature and windchill of below 20 degrees.  Therefore, if the weather is below 20 degrees, students will remain inside for recess and we will allow students to line up inside the building starting at 8:30 am.

Please remember to always dress appropriately for the weather; students will need snow pants, boots, hats, scarves and gloves to ensure their safety and well-being when we have outdoor recess!

More information on district policy for weather related closures and elementary indoor recess is available through this link to Superintendent Maleyko’s blog.
