Fifth graders at Bellefontaine Intermediate School came together for a break from the heat wave Tuesday afternoon.

Assistant Principal Jenny Salyer reports the students worked through a Leader in Me lesson on their new Chromebooks in the air-conditioned cafeteria.

School leaders have made adjustments because of the extreme heat in the 90-year-old building.

Students can take frequent breaks and reusable Chieftain water bottles are given to each 3rd-5th grader.

Pop up tents have been set up on the playground.

Bellefontaine Middle School gave popsicles to intermediate school students and staff on Tuesday.

The scorcher will continue throughout the week.

The forecast high for Wednesday is 91.
