HVAC Work: Circo Company will be working at our site on the HVAC equipment. They will most likely start Tuesday Dec 12th. If we have any classrooms with sensitive students please provide me the room numbers to them so they can work them into the schedule to be done before school starts or after it ends. They will be onsite approximately 2-5 days. They will need access to all the classrooms and roofs. They will need to be in the classrooms for about 15 minutes each and they will try to work in the Classrooms when the kids are at recess, lunch break or before and after school. 

*Traditions:
 Our traditions are important. Please be intentional with exploring your students traditions during this time of year to help them feel proud and included. Please be purposeful in communicating with you parents the traditions/celebrations of your class.

*Keep a Routine: Keeping a routine and schedule until break will help with behaviors and expectations.

*Reminder: Not every student looks forward to being home for the holidays. Home means different things to different kids. This may cause a spike in behaviors.

*Expectations: When we return from breaks, remember you should reteach recess rodeo routines. Kids quickly forget. 

*Evacuation Drill: Weather permitting, our next evacuation drill will be conducted while some of our kids are at recess. More information will be coming to you with regards to procedures. 

*Lunch start: please remember to have your students enter the barn at the start of their lunch time. If they come in too soon, the tables, floor and food isn't ready. Thank you. 

**Please remember to check the LIVE Google Calendar as dates/times are subject to change.
