Eclipse 4/8/2024

April 5, 2024 | News

Hello MAM Parents & Caregivers-

A letter (linked below) was sent home with all-day students on Friday, April 5th.  If you did not get the letter, keep reading.

On Monday, April 8th we will experience a partial Solar Eclipse.

In our area, the eclipse is scheduled to start at 12:53 PM (after our recesses end), with 50% of max. coverage at 1:33, maximum coverage at 2:08, another 50% at 2:42, and the eclipse ending at 3:21.

The school will be providing all full-day students with Eclipse safe viewing glasses and invite students and staff who may have their own to bring them on Monday – as peak coverage for Milwaukee will be during our dismissal.

If you DO NOT want your child to participate in Eclipse related classroom activities and did not receive the 4/5/2024 letter please call the school on Monday 414-906-4800 or email 268@milwaukee.k12.wi.us to OPT-OUT of Eclipse related classroom activities.

ONLY CALL OR email or RETURN THE FORM IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR CHILD TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASSROOM RELATED ECLIPSE ACTIVITIES!   

If you are OK with them participating DO NOTHING!
