Now here’s Ms Schlappner with a rainy day announcement:

If the weather continues to be rainy and windy, we may need to have our first indoor recess.  Please pay close attention to how this will work.  Staff – I emailed this out as well.

Indoor Recess Process

  1.     We expect everyone to behave in a calm, kind, safe, and respectful way at all times, especially during an indoor recess. 
  2.     All students must be in a classroom, the library, or gym.  No one can be in the halls.
  3.     You may choose to go to a friend’s classroom as long as there is space and you behave appropriately.  If you are not, especially after being asked by a staff member to do or not do something, you will be sent back to your own classroom or the office.
  4.     You must choose ONE CLASSROOM OR SPACE (like the Library or Gym) to go to and stay in for the duration of the break within 5 minutesNO moving between classrooms.  Once the Library or Gym are full, you must return right away to a classroom and stay there.  If we feel a classroom is too full, you may be sent back to your own classroom.  Please follow adult requests or you will be sent to the office.
  5.     If we need to stay in at Lunch Recess, everyone will eat in their own classrooms as usual, then we will open up the Library and Gym after eating time.
  6.     Ms Schlappner or Ms Elford will make the announcement just before NB and Lunch regarding whether we will be having an indoor or outdoor recess.  If the rain and wind lessen or stop, we will be going outside.
  7.     Thank you in advance for your cooperation and for following staff requests respectfully.

In the case of an indoor recess, volleyball practice at lunch will be canceled.
