October Newsletter
Corinth Middle School
Halloween is almost here!
Students are permitted to wear school-appropriate costumes on Friday, October 30th. Please review the following safety and dress code guidelines with your child:
Permitted: School-appropriate costumes that allow students to comfortably participate in regular school activities.
Not Allowed: Halloween masks, costumes that hides a student 's face, inflatable costumes that restrict students ability to transition in hallways safely, gory outfits or makeup, and fake weapons of any kind.
Friday is our first Fun Night of the year!
Over the past two months, we've had a blast celebrating students who consistently show safe, respectful, and responsible behavior! Students who maintained positive behavior and have not been issued an office referral since September 28th, were rewarded with an invitation to our very first Fun Night of the school year.
Thank you to our students for leading by example every day, and thank you to our school community for supporting positive choices!
