This eclipse is going to be cool, but remember to be safe!
During an eclipse, you cannot look directly at the sun without special glasses or view it through a smartphone or other camera without a filter. It can be tempting to look at the sky as it becomes dark. This is dangerous and could mean permanent damage to your eyes.
The only safe way to look at a partially eclipsed sun is through special-purpose solar filters, such as eclipse glasses. Young children may do better with handheld viewers, as the glasses are often too large for their heads. ❤️🤍🖤#BuildingStrongerTogether
On Monday, April 8, 2024, there will be a rare total eclipse over North America. Our country won’t see another total eclipse until August 23, 2044!!
Michigan won’t get the full eclipse but in our area, we will see around 95% of the sun covered. The eclipse will begin at 1:58 pm with maximum coverage at 3:13 pm. The eclipse will end with the sun fully visible again at 4:26 pm.
During the 1994 solar eclipse people in Chicago saw 94% coverage of the sun. During that eclipse the temperature fell 8 degrees in an hour, streetlights came on, insects, birds, and animals were quiet, and animals thought it was night. We can probably expect the same things to happen here on April 8th. ❤️🤍🖤#BuildingStrongerTogether

NASA offers great tips on how to safely observe the sun during the eclipse, as well as links to approved glasses: NASA. Additional filters and other resources for safe viewing can be found at How to View a Solar Eclipse Safely.
Remember to wear sunscreen, a hat, and protective clothing while watching the eclipse. The sun may be very bright and if you are watching the entire eclipse you may be in direct sunlight for hours.
Have a great and safe time viewing this rare and amazing celestial event!
Ordinary sunglasses are not sufficient to filter the damaging light during an eclipse. It is very important that you DO NOT try to watch the solar eclipse while driving. Please remember this as part of the eclipse will be happening during our normal dismissal time. Also, don't take photos or record videos of the eclipse while driving. Instead, find a safe spot to park and watch the eclipse.
Another method is to use pinhole projection. To do this, you pass sunlight through a small opening, for example, a hole punched in paper, to project the image of the sun onto the ground or another surface. Pinhole projection does not mean looking directly at the sun through a small pinhole.
