As a reminder, our Extreme Weather Non-Uniform Guideline (as stated in the Lower School Handbook on page 26) reads "If at 6:00 am, the temperature or the wind chill factor renders the temperature below freezing (32 degrees), a free Lower School Non-Uniform Day will be observed."
Do keep in mind that our policy was put in place for the purpose of having our students dress more warmly. In order that we all have the same temperature guideline, our Kindergarten homepage webpage now has a weather widget. Please adhere to this guideline for the official determination of an Extreme Weather Non-Uniform Day.
