As we gear up to welcome back our students, an exciting event awaits us: a Solar Eclipse scheduled for Monday, April 8th. Imperial County is among many areas in the U.S. and Mexico that will experience a solar eclipse on April 8th as the moon passes between Earth and the Sun. Although other parts of the US will experience a total solar eclipse, Imperial County will experience a partial solar eclipse between 50% and 60%. The partial eclipse is expected to begin around 10 a.m. and will peak about an hour later at 11:15 a.m., before ending at approximately 12:20 p.m. While Imperial County is not in the path of the total eclipse, eye safety is still a first priority.
It is always dangerous to view any part of the sun’s surface directly without proper filters, any day of the year, and observing an eclipse without proper eye protection can instantly cause severe eye injury. Please discuss with your child these dangers and the importance of not looking at the sun during the eclipse. Please note that sunglasses do not make looking at an eclipse safe.
We will share safety information with staff and students at the start of the day Monday, April 8, 2024. Eye safety will be a first priority and will be reinforced throughout the day. If at any time there are concerns regarding eye safety, or students not following safety precautions, students will be returned indoors. Pupil Supervisors will be aware of the eye safety precautions and will enforce eye safety at all times. San Diego County Office of Education has also provided a website with safety tips and activities.
Between 10:00am and 12:20pm, we will implement the following safety measures:
1. Lunch will be provided in the classrooms for (TK-7th Grade). The 8th-grade students will return to their usual schedule as it falls outside the specified time frame.
2. Recess activities will take place indoors.
3. Physical Education classes will be conducted indoors.
4. Pupil Supervisors will oversee passing periods and restroom usage.
Students will receive reminders about the risks of direct eye exposure to the sun while outdoors. Additionally, please discuss the dangers of looking directly at the sun during lunch and passing periods with the students.
We are thrilled to have our students back after a rejuvenating Spring Break.
See you Monday!
