Dear Families,
As you may be aware, temperatures will be very low Monday morning, especially with the expected wind chill. The district will be sending messages to families on Friday and again Sunday afternoon asking that students dress warmly, particularly if they will be waiting at a bus stop or walking to school.
We appreciate your help in ensuring your child comes to school dressed appropriately for the cold weather.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Rolle
