Are you worried about the kids at school when it comes recess time and they are forced to go outside in the sweltering heat? Sunflower Elementary Principal, Andi Stipe, says USD 290 has a heat policy when it comes to going outside:
That is District wide. All middle school and high school outdoor practices will be before school due to the extreme heat forecast for the afternoon hours. Ottawa High football will practice at 5:30 and the soccer team will practice at 5:15. All other teams will practice early also.
