I'm a cold-weather person, me. Brain works best in 4-8C, but the fingers complain. :-)
I know a couple of tricks to keep cool. Cold water/cloths on the pulse points works. As does going down to the shore and wading in to mid-thigh. :-)
That school district sounds very much afraid of litigatious parents :-). If one was afraid of getting hurt (or getting the poor ickle darlings hurt), one would have to stay cowering in a locked interior room and never do anything at all.
Though certain precautions are necessary. I knew a girl once got her front teeth knocked out walking down to a hockey pitch, because someone wasn't looking where she swung her stick, and the gumshields weren't in yet. Certain sensible precautions were taken after that. :-)
