When the temperature falls below 20◦F, students stay indoors during recess. They can watch a movie in the auditorium, or they can choose to come to the Community Room to just hang out, play with a few items, draw, etc. On some days, some classes will be assigned to the gym or perhaps the library. Due to staffing requirements and safety issues, these are the only choices currently.
WE NEED PARENT VOLUNTEERS TO HELP MANAGE THE CROWDS! (and interact with the appreciative and lively students J)
If you can be available between 10:50 – 12:05 even once a month, twice a week, or anywhere in between, we need you. The weather was prohibitive less than 15 times last year, so some volunteers were not needed. Others, through their usual generosity, were prevailed upon several times.
PLEASE CONTACT ME TO ADD YOUR NAME TO OUR VOLUNTEER ROSTER. We need at least four people a day (one in the auditorium, two in the Community Room, one in the gym/library) to work with the staff supervisors.
Over the Winter Break we will begin crafting the schedule, so please examine your January through March calendars and let us know when we could count on you to facilitate a happy winter indoor recess experience.
