The following guidelines are for general outdoor activities during the school day, these include PE and recess. The Director of School Safety will monitor the "feels like" temperature and UV index to determine the need to restrict student activity outside, and communicate with the campus principal.
SMCISD athletics utilizes the UIL recommended Wet Bulb Globe temperature scale to monitor afterschool sports practice temperature restrictions.
Students will not be allowed outside for activities if the "feels like" temperature exceeds 100°F.
Students who are outside are allowed unrestricted access to water
Students who are outside for lunch transition or waiting for carpool are encourage them to stand in a shaded area to avoid sun exposure.
Students who state they are too hot are provided an alternate activity.
