School officials are asking parents to communicate with their children the importance of following these safety precautions:

• Do not look directly at the sun during the solar eclipse, as it could be harmful to your vision.

• Do not look at the sun without proper eye protection.

• Do not look at the sun through a telescope or binoculars.

• Do not look at the sun through sunglasses, smoked glass or welder's glasses.

• Do not look at the sun through a camera/smart phone.
