Winter Weather has Arrived

With the arrival of the much anticipated snow children are reminded to demonstrate respect for the creations of others.  Students are encouraged to help build creations but not tear them down.  We will attempt to provide designated areas for snow games.  Please remind students that there is no throwing snowballs outside of these areas.  Students are reminded to dress appropriately for outdoor winter play and to wear all clothing sent to school by parents.
