The students received information about our Kids Heart Challenge event recently. They can earn lots of fun prizes for participating and raising money for the American Heart Association. We will be running our events on November 25 and 26. The kids will be learning about heart health during school through activities such as exercise and by being encouraged to eat more veggies and fruit. Each class will be conducting their event in their own fun and age-appropriate way!
One quick, easy way to get pledges is to log in to https://www2.heart.org/site/

SJL follows the school closing of the Plymouth School District. When Plymouth Schools are closed, SJL is closed as well. We are not listed separately.
Why close school? Safety is the primary concern. If schools are open, our students are traveling to and from school; if schools close, several hundred children from ages 6 to 12 are home unsupervised.
What influences the decision?
Visibility: Blowing snow is the most critical factor in safe transportation; this includes concern with fog.
Snowfall: Snow amounts and slippery conditions reported by people who are actually driving the roads.
Cold: Actual sustained temperature below -15 F or wind chills below -30 F.
Who makes the decision? Several people have input, but the final decision lies with the superintendent, who consults with:
*The manager and the staff at Johnson Bus, for important information about road and driving conditions.
*Other superintendents in the region.
*Local and national weather data.
*Up-to-date state and local radar.
*School maintenance people, to be sure that we can offer clear sidewalks and driveways.
*Road crews and the police.
While the decision to close school lies with the superintendent, parents have the ultimate responsibility for keeping their children safe. If a child is kept home during inclement weather, it will be counted as an excused absence. Parents also should consider whether an inexperienced driver should drive or ride the bus instead.
How do we let people know?
Once a decision is made regarding school closings or delays, the announcement is posted on Sycamore and the general website. In addition, the radio and television stations listed below are contacted.
When weather conditions are such that you question if school will be closed, please be sure to check these sources. We know that some of you are in positions where you are not able to see or hear announcements during the day. In this case we urge that you make arrangements with friends and relatives to listen for you in case school is dismissed early in bad weather.
