Halloween costumes should be school appropriate:

We love when adults wear costumes, but please no masks.
Safety Week
The week of October 16th in all New Jersey public schools is School Violence Awareness week. At KRS, we designate the week as School Safety week. Some of our safety activity highlights are as follows:
- Daily safety morning announcements about knowing your address and phone number, fire exits in your home, wearing your seatbelt, helmet wearing, crossing the street, and Halloween safety.
- The Madison Police Department will present to students about Halloween safety and Internet safety for students in grades 3-5 on October 19, 2023.
- The Madison Fire Department will present about fire safety to the students on October 17, 2023.
- School Safety Chain - Every student will write a safety rule that they learned during the week on a paper chain link. The links will be connected to create one KRS safety chain which will be displayed in the KRS lobby.
We are looking forward to an informative and engaging 2023 School Safety Week!
