Students need to wear a winter jacket to school and also bring a hat and gloves when the temperature hits a certain number.&nbsp; When snow is on the ground, students need to bring boots and snow pants. If the temperature is 20 degrees or warmer, students will still be going outside for recess. A copy of our&nbsp;Winter Guidelines&nbsp;for student dress is outlined below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winter Guidelines for Outdoor Recess<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students go outside for recess two times a day, even during the winter months. We use the following guidelines to determine when it is safe for students to be outside. To make this determination, we use the \u201cfeels like\u201d temperature (wind chill) as reported by the National Weather Service. Please make sure your child is prepared with the necessary outerwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TEMPERATURE GUIDELINES:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Below 20 degrees, we do not go outside<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>20 degrees or higher, we go outside<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Clothing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the months of November through March, students should bring boots every day as there are many areas on the playground that can get quite snowy and\/or muddy. Labeling items with your child\u2019s first and last name can help us to return any lost items. We expect that students will wear the following winter gear when heading outside for recess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CLOTHING RECOMMENDATIONS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>50-60 degrees: Long sleeves<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>40-50 degrees: Jacket,sweatshirt, or coat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30-40 degrees: Winter jacket, hat and mittens\/gloves and covered legs (i.e tights, jeans, pants).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Below 30 and if snowy: Full set of snow gear to play in the snow (winter jacket, snow pants, hat, mittens, and boots)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>November \u2013 March: Bring boots and shoes daily\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Students who do not wear snow pants and boots will not be able to play in the snow or on the playground.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Students who do not bring boots will still go outdoors, but are expected to stay on the sidewalk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for helping to make sure your student is prepared for the Michigan Fall &amp; Winter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mrs. Alcodray &amp; Mrs. Fournier<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Parent &amp; Guardians, Now that cold weather is here, it\u2019s important for students to dress appropriately for the conditions.
