- Hey students, listen up for a few reminders about lunch! As long as it isn’t actively snowing or raining, we will still be allowing you the choice to eat outside if you prefer. On days where it is too snowy to sit on the grass, the outside lunch supervisor will show you where you can sit to eat on the concrete or in the courtyard. Don’t forget to bring your jacket and any other cold weather gear with you to lunch. You will not be permitted to go back to your locker or a classroom to get anything once lunch has started. If there is a lot of snow on the grass, students will need to follow instructions to stay on concrete only and to leave the snow on the ground please. If you choose to stay inside for all of lunch, please remember to put your mask back on as soon as you’ve finished eating. Inside, you need to stay seated at a lettered seat for all of lunch time.
