Hello Elementary families,
As the end of Summer School and Wheaton Elementary’s June 13th trip to the Monett YMCA pool approaches, we want to make sure families all are aware of the following expectations for swimwear and sunscreen:
-Sunscreen: Not needed. We will be swimming at the indoor pool.
-Clothing for Swimming : In accordance with our school dress code, all students are expected to wear swimsuits that cover their top, middle and bottom.
If students forget a swim shirt for their trip to the pool, we will have some extra t-shirts on hand to lend for the day. If you have any questions about these expectations, please email us at khaynes@wheatonschools.org or cpaullus@wheatonschools.org
In partnership,
