Our official first snow of the school year occurred this morning as students were entering MLK. To the left is the snowy scene shortly after students entered. Can you believe that yesterday it was sixty degrees? Welcome to Michigan!If you have watched the weather the past few days, you already knew the temperature was going to drop and that snow was a possibility. Unfortunately, I counted at least six students who were caught off-guard and were not dressed appropriately--they were wearing t-shirts. From the looks on their faces, I could tell they were surprised and uncomfortable!
Please let our snowy morning serve as a reminder to watch carefully what students wear as they leave home. It is wise to help students be prepared for a variety of weather. The essentials right now include a coat, hat, and gloves. When larger amounts of snow occur, snow pants and boots are required if students want to play anywhere off the playground asphalt.
