As a reminder, the District plans three classroom parties every year to celebrate Halloween, Winter Break, and Valentine's Day at Todd Hall and Rutledge Hall. Sign-up periods for each party will be as follows:

• Halloween - Sept. 23 at 7 p.m. through Oct. 14 at 11:59 p.m.
• Winter Break - Nov. 11 at 7 p.m. through Dec. 2 at 11:59 p.m.
• Valentine’s Day - Jan. 13 at 7 p.m. through Feb. 3 at 11:59 p.m.

At the end of each sign-up period, the District will create a schedule of coverage for every classroom at both schools, ensuring that those who express interest are assigned to at least one party during the year.

Depending on their grade, students may have required medical forms due for the new school year. Per state law, students not in compliance by October 15, 2025 will be unable to attend classes until required health forms are submitted. If you have any questions, please contact your respective building school nurse.

As we approach our annual Halloween celebrations, please remember that costumes should be non-violent (no weapons or look-alikes, or gruesome images), functional (allowing movement and visibility with no masks), and appropriate for school.

Lincoln Hall will host its annual Wellness Day on Oct. 31, 8:05 a.m. - 11:05 a.m. If you are interested in volunteering to help a presenter run a station, please sign up here by Oct. 21. Questions? Contact Assistant Principal Segreti at jsegreti@sd74.org.
