September 21-25
It’s hard to believe that we are quickly approaching the end of September. As we walk through classes we see teachers and TAs engaged in meaningful work with students. It’s inspiring.

Recess Information: Please take some time to review this document: Rainy Day Recess
Here are the guidelines for lightning and thunder.
Special thanks to Jay for having me research and communicate this!
- If there is light rain, we continue to do outdoor recess.
- If there is heavy rain, we will call indoor recess.
- If there is thunder, staff are asked to watch the sky for any sign of lightning.
- If lightning is directly observed by staff, we will call indoor recess.
ASAs and Bus Students: Just a reminder to guide our younger students to their ASA or bus. Thanks so much!
