Because of the excessive heat warning, high temps & humidity, all students will remain indoors today. ☀️ Recess, breaks and PE will be indoors. All teachers are allowing students to have their water bottles out, and students are able to refill them at our filtered water stations. 💧 Our bus riders may have their water out (they're being told that today) and the windows will be open for air movement. 🚌 If you choose to pick up today & your student normally rides the bus, please change your Pick Up Patrol plan before 1:45 pm. We will keep the circle drive flowing as quickly as possible. 🚗 Thank you!
