Halloween Halloween

On the morning of October 30, our school will celebrate Halloween while students follow their regular class schedule. Teachers will communicate directly with families regarding any classroom activities planned for the afternoon.

Students are welcome to wear costumes for the entire day. Please ensure that costumes are in good taste, align with our school dress code, and support a safe and caring environment.

Please keep the following guidelines in mind:

- No weapons: Toy weapons of any kind (including spears, knives, guns, swords, bows, arrows, etc.) are strictly prohibited.

- No gory masks: Full-face gory masks are not permitted. Standard masks or helmets (e.g., Minecraft masks, or police, fire, hockey, baseball, and football helmets) are acceptable at staff discretion.

Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to a fun celebration!
