OCTOBER 16TH - 18TH

HERE IS WHAT IS COMING UP ....

We are excited for our annual elementary Halloween Parade that will take place on Thursday, October 31st, which is also a short day. Because the parade will start at 9:00am, we ask that students come to school already dressed in their costumes. For those who would like to watch the parade, please plan on bringing camping chairs or blankets to sit along the outside of either Q1 or Q2 (click here to see the map—the yellow squares indicate where families can sit). Though Q2 students are welcome to dress up, their participation in the parade will be limited to watching the elementary students. 

Costume guidelines:

Costumes should be modest and without blood or gore. Students are welcome to paint their faces and wear Halloween masks, but masks will only be worn when directed to do so by the classroom teacher (e.g. during the parade, when a class picture is taken, etc). No one should enter the school wearing a mask. Weapons and anything that depicts violence are not allowed on school property (knives, guns, swords, spears, scythes, etc.). If you have questions about costume accessories, please contact us. Just to reiterate, no blood or gore is allowed, either depicted on the costume or in makeup. Thanks!
