 Important Notice: Total Solar Eclipse Viewing Safety Precautions at Buljan Middle School


On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Except during the brief total phase of a total solar eclipse, when the Moon completely blocks the Sun’s bright face, it is not safe to look directly at the Sun without specialized eye protection for solar viewing. Our students will obviously be in school during this event, and our educators will take full advantage of this to make it a safe, learning experience for our students. 


NASA-approved safety glasses have been ordered for students, and all teachers will work with them to ensure the safe viewing of the eclipse during the event.


Please make sure to tell your child not to look directly at the sun during this event, or attempt to observe the eclipse without adult supervision and guidance. They should closely follow teacher instructions during the eclipse, especially those involving eye and eyewear safety.

  

If you have questions about the activities that will be conducted at your child’s school or wish to have your student refrain from participating in these activities, please contact the school office and let them know.


We are attaching information provided by NASA to learn more about this event and how to participate safely.
