Thank for your patience today at pick-up. When the weather makes it challenging to be outside for pick-up, then you will see me outside getting names from those in cars and in the parking lot. We call...Happy New Year! We have been blessed with snow, which means fun at recess. Students will need to wear snow boots and snow pants in order to play in the snow at recess. Students who do not will be able to stay on the blacktop and walking path to keep them dry and warm.
Please make sure to send your child with gloves, mittens, scarf, hat, etc. to stay warm out at recess. I would suggest marking each item with your child's name to make it easy to find when things get lost or misplaced.
I am so excited to see everyone back from break!
Sheila Taylor, Orchard Hills Principal
