Clover Chronicle

As the weather begins to shift, please be reminded of the importance of dressing appropriately for cooler and often wetter conditions!

As a reminder, students will continue to go outside for recess unless the temperature or wind chill is extremely low, or if there is heavy, sustained precipitation.

Please help your child prepare for our outdoor time by ensuring they come to school each day with the appropriate gear.

• Warm Layers: Please encourage your child to wear or bring layers, such as a warm sweater or fleece, which can easily be put on or taken off as the temperature changes throughout the day.

• Warm Outerwear: A warm coat is essential!

• Hats and Gloves: Once the colder weather truly sets in, a warm hat and a pair of gloves or mittens are a must for keeping little hands and ears protected.

• Appropriate Footwear: If the forecast calls for rain or snow (when it arrives!), please consider sending your child in waterproof boots and an extra pair of socks.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students warm and happy this season.

Families, if your child arrives to school after 8:40am, he or she must be accompanied into the school by an adult. The adult must sign the student in at the security desk.
