MRE Update
January 1, 2024
Effective immediately, the green hallway doors leading to the main hallway outside of the music room will be closed and securely locked at 3:30 every day, remaining so throughout the weekend. This measure is implemented for the safety and security of students and external groups using the school facilities, restricting access to this particular area. We kindly remind everyone attending weekend or evening activities in the school not to wedge open any external doors. This precaution is essential to ensure the safety, security, and privacy of all MRE students, staff, and families. Any forgotten items can be retrieved on the next school day. We appreciate your cooperation and partnership in maintaining a secure environment.
Cold Weather Gear and Chapped Lips!
December is finally upon us, though the cold weather has been with us for a while now. We want to ensure that all of the children at MRE remain safe and healthy this holiday season. One way to remain healthy is to wear appropriate clothing to and from school.
Please ensure that your child has the following clothing when coming to school:
· Hat
· Gloves
· Several layers of clothing
· Winter coat
· Boots and snow pants as needed
We use the Child Care Weather Watch to determine when children can safely go outside for recess. More often than not, your child will be outside at recess daily so it is imperative that proper cold weather clothing is worn. If the mornings are rushed, please make sure to plan ahead of time the night before so that all the winter gear is ready to go in the morning.
Another thing that cold weather brings is dry chapped lips! To help prevent dry, chapped lips in your child:
Drink plenty of water
Monitor for repetitive licking of lips
Apply lip balm or unscented ointments to lips as needed throughout the day
Send your child to school with their own lip balm to use as needed
