Dressing Your Child for the Weather
As our students do go outside for recess daily, please be sure to check the weather and send your child dressed in the appropriate clothing on a daily basis. There are days that the temperature drops throughout the school day so please send your child in layers on such days. We take students out for recess as long as wind chill does not go below 35 degrees Fahrenheit. |

We have opened Priority Admissions for 2015-2016. All current families must reapply for their students if they wish for them to continue at ILM Academy next year.
