Recess Safety & Lunchtime Manners

Sweetsir Playground

Students recently attended a school-wide assembly on 'Recess Safety & Lunchtime Manners'.  They were shown a slide show featuring students using polite behavior in the cafeteria and playing safely on the equipment.  Topics included: using two hands on the monkey bars; going one at a time and feet first down the slide; looking to be sure the coast is clear before descending the twisty bar; and putting toys away as soon as the bell rings.  Please ask your children to tell you about the assembly and remind them to follow the same safety rules while using the equipment outside of school hours.

Parents, since there are many cars traveling around the building during dismissal we ask that you not allow your children to play on the grounds at that time.   Your family is welcome to enjoy the playground after 3:20pm or any day school is not in session.
