ECLIPSE VIEWING INFORMATION
Northwest Safety Precautions
As many of you are aware, a solar eclipse will be happening on Monday, April 8.This is an exciting opportunity for our students. However, in order to ensure their safety during this event, we are going to implement safety precautions at Northwest.
On the day of the eclipse, we will have indoor recess, and some teachers will taking classes outside in controlled groups to safely view the eclipse using certified eclipse glasses. Please contact your child's teacher if you have questions about whether or not they will be viewing.
If you choose to take your child to view the eclipse independently, please check them out in the front office. Please contact Mrs. Price if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you!
