Reminder to families: With children playing in the woods, it is still necessary to tick check your children daily. This means means a full body check, especially in their hair. It is important to maintain this daily practice up until snow falls. Thank you for your attention to this health matter.
Ensure you know the procedures the individual schools follow on bad weather days. If you suspect school might have a delayed or closed for the day, check the school website if you have Internet access. Or use Instant Alert. The information is available in your school office.
