winter clothing

Dressing warm for winter is very important for your well being. If you don't dress appropriately for winter weather you could got frost bit or hypothermia. Ashley King a junior at Sparta high school stated, "You should dress warm for winter to keep warm and so you don't get sick." Kelsey Thurston echoed King's statement.

King also stated that, "If you don't dress warm for winter you could get sick." Thurston also agreed with that and said they would be cold.

King stated, " I don't think the students dress appropriately for winter weather." Thurston said, "not everybody dresses appropriately for winter, I see people wearing skirts and that's not winter clothing."

Melissa Moore a nurse stated that, " People could get hypothermia if they don't dress appropriately for winter." She also stated that, "You could die from it depending on the severity of hypothermia.

"You get frostbite when your outside your body gets cold and the blood don't get to your fingers because more blood is circulated to your organs to keep them warm." stated Mrs. Moore.

Mrs. Moore said, "getting frost bite could be as bad as losing a finger, toe, hand, and your nose could even get frost bite if your not careful."

Moore also stated that, "There is no estimated time it takes for you to get frost bite, it depends on what you are wearing and how long you are outside and if you are wet you can get it faster within seconds depending on how cold it is outside."
