Costumes
Costumes are welcomed but not required. Please consider the appropriateness of your child’s costume choice. Simulated weapons or other dangerous costume parts should be left at home (swords, lightsabers, etc.). Children will need to have clear vision and movement in their costumes. Children should not wear masks on the bus or in the hallways during school. They may have their mask during party time in the classroom. Grim and violent costumes can scare young children and should be reserved for trick or treating in the neighborhood.
Morning Parties - AM Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd-grade students should wear their costumes to school. There will not be time to change into costumes at school.
Afternoon Parties- 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students should bring their costumes to school in a bag labeled with their name, preferably placed in the backpack. Students will have time to change into costumes after lunch. PM KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS should wear their costumes to school. Students may wear their costumes home on the bus (no masks).
