Essential Questions from Camp Collins

From Dian-

Hi all. Looks like it's a good time to remind students about wheels on the playground. We stress no riding skating, scootering, skateboarding or even those wheelies after school until 330. A reminder too that those wheelie wearers need helmets on the way to and from school, just like our bike riders and skateboarders. And no wheelies in school. Either wheels out or a different pair of shoes would be in order for the school day.  Hope this brings some clarity. 

Thanks a bunch, 

Dian
