Christopher Columbus School #8

As October draws to a close this week we have a couple of events to celebrate Halloween. Our Trunk or Treat will take place on Tuesday, 10/27 from 4-5:30pm. Please note that tickets for the event needed to be pre-purchased by last week and no tickets will be sold the day of the event.

Our Halloween Parade (weather permitting) will take place on Friday, 10/30 @ 9:30 am. Students will exit the front doors and take a left to walk towards the trailers. They will then proceed to walk around the building staying on school grounds walking along the sidewalks and blacktop. They will walk 3 times around the school returning back inside through the front doors. We ask that parents line up on the grass in front of the school and along the left side of the building. Parents may also line up in the back parking lot along the curb in front of the fence around to the fence in front the the playground area behind the trailers. No student is permitted to leave from the parade line for safety reasons. We are looking forward to a great day !
