We are excited to have our Dos Rios Halloween parade on Thursday, October 31 at 3:00pm.

Your child will be able to wear his/her costume to school all day.

A classroom activity will take place after the parade. Approved parents/guardians are welcome to come to parties and/or the parade. Please be sure you check in at the office before entering the school for any part of the Halloween festivities.

We are also asking parents and students to ensure costumes are appropriate for school. We encourage students to dress as their favorite storybook characters and other positive role models. Student and parent costumes will:

• Have no blood, gore, or scary/gruesome visuals

• Not include weapons of any kind or props that could be considered a weapon

• Will be subject to administration’s approval

• Student Costumes: Be easy to get on and off for bathroom use-Especially for our younger students.

The parade will begin at 3:00pm. Please look for more information in your child's Thursday folder. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact your child’s teacher or the Dos Rios office at 254-7910.

In counseling, Ms. Shepard will be focused on bully prevention lessons.

Parents, school staff, and other adults in the community can help kids prevent bullying by talking about it, building a safe school environment, and creating a community-wide bullying prevention strategy. When adults respond quickly and consistently to bullying behavior they send the message that it is not acceptable.

Join us on October 24th from 8:30-9:30 at Dos Rios, for time to ask questions and talk with Mrs. Cain.

We would like to invite all Dos Rios parents, grandparents and guardians to join the Dos Rios PTO. Shape your child's school experience, make lasting connections, and be a part of positive change. If you are interested in getting involved, please contact the school at (970)254-7910 and ask for Ashley Elliott or attend the next PTO meeting on October 8th.
