Cold Weather Gear for Recess!
It is definitely getting colder. Please make sure your child has the appropriate gear for recess. We go outside to -10 degrees. Today we noticed students wearing shorts and t-shirts at recess. The kids were really cold. Please send gloves, hats and coats to school for recess. Thank you. Snow boots and snow pants will also be needed soon so don’t delay and get them ready so your child is prepared for the first snow. We truly appreciate your help with having the appropriate cold weather gear ready for winter.
Thank you to the PTO for another successful Halloween Carnival and Artist in Residency Program. The students of Cottonwood are so lucky to have such involved families. Thanks for all you do!
