Colder weather is here! Your 6th grader MUST have a COAT to wear for outside recess when the temperature is below 50 degrees. Please help your 6th grader understand the difference between a COAT and a JACKET. A coat has a thicker lining than a jacket. Hoodies do not substitute for a coat, even if the hoodie is worn over another sweatshirt. Please let Mrs. Allen or me know if your child needs a coat. Students who don't have a coat on days with below 50 temperatures will stay in study hall during recess.
