🔔 Reminder: Label Your Child’s Winter Gear

_
As the weather gets colder, please take a moment to write your child’s name inside all coats and winter apparel they bring to school. Items such as jackets, pullovers, hoodies, hats, gloves, and scarves are often set down or forgotten throughout the day.

_
Labeling these items helps us quickly return them to the correct student. Without a name, they may end up in the lost-and-found or be accidentally taken home by another child.

_
Thank you for helping us keep track of everyone’s belongings and making sure our students stay warm this winter!
