a wonderful winter
recess!
Prepare for the Cold Weather!Prepare for the Cold Weather!Prepare for the Cold Weather!Prepare for the Cold Weather! The colder weather is upon us and we all know
that Michigan winters can be brutal. Please make
sure your student(s) is dressed appropriately for the weather. Fresh air and exercise are great
for kids. As long as the temperature (and wind-
chill) remains above 20°, we will be sending stu-
dents outside for recess. This includes going out-side in the snow. So, proper clothing will include boots, hats, gloves, and snow pants. Yes, lunch
moms and WATCH D.O.G.S. are welcome to make
snow angels and snow people, too. Let’s work to-gether to make sure all of our students
are warm and comfortable when they
go outside this winter.
Santa’s Secret Shop
Our PTO could use
some additional vol-
unteers for Santa’s
Secret Shop. Please
contact Melissa
Greer at hoff-
or visit Sign-Up Ge-
nius at the link be-
low to sign-up for a
time slot.

School Closings
As with last year, our
Superintendent’s office will be
sending out an EduLink Message notifying parents when school is closed due to inclement weather or other
situations.
Please make sure your phone numbers are up to date in our
system so that you receive these important messages.
