At the most recent Safety Team Meeting we discussed warm weather safety guidelines for staff and students. Here are some reminders:

  • Open windows combined with fans are a great strategy to keep classrooms more comfortable. Please let Mike know if you need a window opener.
  • Doors should not be propped open, unless directly supervised by an adult within arms reach of the door.
  • If you ever notice a door that is propped open and an adult is not next to it, please close it.
  • Wear sunscreen and stay well-hydrated
  • Maximize the use of shade when possible
  • Keep in mind the signs of heat related illness

End of the Year Note: Students will turn-in iPads the last week of school (schedule TBD) Students will be able to continue to access Lexia and Dreambox (via home devices) throughout the summer.
