🥶 Cold Weather Reminder! 🧣
It’s officially November, and those chilly mornings are here to stay! Please help your child come to school dressed appropriately for the weather. Students should arrive in warm clothing including pants, coats, hats, and gloves as they will still go outside daily for recess whenever possible.
Layering is a great idea so students can stay comfortable throughout the day as temperatures change. When there’s snow on the ground, snow pants and boots are encouraged too!
Thank you for helping us keep our Cardinals cozy and ready to learn! #ProudToBeACardinal

Dress Code and Conduct at Performances:
With a concert next week and concerts in December, we want to take this opportunity to remind everyone of the expectations for how to dress and how to conduct oneself during performances. We would like to first remind everyone that student attire during concerts should follow the dress code policy in the student handbook, so please help your child(ren) find concert attire that meets these requirements. The length of dresses is especially important because the audience is looking up to the performers and short dresses become extra short when viewed from the vantage point of the audience.
As the audience, you are an important part of the concerts. The audience’s responsibility at concerts is to honor the efforts of the performers by providing a listening atmosphere in which all can appreciate their performance. To that end, we ask your cooperation with the following items:
• Make sure all cell phones and electronic devices are silenced and your flash is turned off for both photos and videos.
• There should be no talking or other noises during the performance.
• Children should stay seated with their parents throughout the entire concert. If it is necessary to go to the restroom or get a drink, exit through the rear doors between performances.
• If small children become restless and disrupt others' ability to listen, take them from the gym until they are quiet.
• Do not hum or clap along with the performers, unless specifically invited to do so.
• Show your appreciation for the performance by clapping after each selection.
Our students and staff have all worked very hard to prepare exceptional evenings of music for everyone to enjoy. The students will be modeling exceptional audience behavior during the concerts, so we ask for your support of their efforts. Thank you, in advance, for your assistance in helping the concerts to be a wonderful experience for everyone!
