No outside activities will be allowed.

Can my child(ren) bring their own toys to play with during Extended Day?

No, toys will not be allowed at Extended Day. If toys are brought to Extended Day, your student will be asked to put them in his or her backpack and not bring them back. If a student continues to bring toys or outside activities to Extended Day, the staff will contact the parents to make them aware and alert administration when needed. Daily supplies from home are the exception (pencils, crayons, erasers, scissors, glue stick).

If they are in an outdoor areas where they can play while socially distance they will be instructed that they may remove their mask for mask breaks.
