Now that the weather is getting warmer, please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather. We go outside every day for recess. It is important for all students to have tennis shoes with them everyday. Flip flops and sandals can be dangerous on the playground.
Riding Bikes to School
To help keep our students safe, students who wish to ride their bicycles to school may do so with parent permission. We request that the parent/guardian write a note or call the main office at
651-748-6700![]( "Call: 651-748-6700")
giving permission. Bikes need to be parked in the bike rack. We do encourage students to follow the rules of the road and wear a helmet. Bike locks are encouraged.
FREE BREAKFAST FOR KINDERGARTNERS
This year at Castle all Kindergarten students are eligible for free breakfast. It is still a choice as to whether or not they would like breakfast but if they do it is FREE. Breakfast starts at 8:25 and students are let in the school at that time. Once students arrive off the bus they come into school and get right in line for breakfast. If they are not having breakfast they will line up outside in their respective grade lines.
