Parents need to
have their children dressed appropriately for the weather. When
the temperature is below 45 degrees all children should have
jackets or coats to wear. During
winter weather children are required to wear winter clothing
such as coats, hat, mittens, snow pants and boots. If
your child/children does not have snow pant s and snow boots on
when snow is on the ground they
will be required to stay on the asphalt. When
temperatures fall below zero degrees, children will have inside
recess. Once
the temperature reaches 45-55 degrees your child/children will
have a choice in wearing either a coat or a light
jacket/sweatshirt outside. When
temperature is 55 degrees or higher it is the child’s decision
what they wear outside.
In case of severe weather closings or
early dismissals, parents will be notified by a telephone call
through the School Reach calling system. Closing
will also be broadcasted on Brooking radio stations (KBRK 1430
AM, B93.7 FM, KJJQ 910 AM, KKQQ 102.3 FM, or KDBX107 FM) If
there is an early dismissal due to severe weather, teachers will
follow dismissal protocol outlined by parents on their child’s
emergency forms. If
there is a change in emergency information parents should
contact their child’s teacher or the school secretary to update
the emergency forms.
