Halloween Costume Requirements (English)
Subject: Halloween Costume Guidelines
Dear Parents,
As we approach Halloween, we’re excited to see our students celebrate with creativity and fun! To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please review the following guidelines for Halloween costumes:
Cultural Sensitivity: Please avoid costumes that are culturally inappropriate, stereotypical, or racially insensitive.
Focus on Fun: Costumes should be fun and lighthearted. We ask that political themes be avoided.
Age-Appropriate: Remember that students of all ages will see your child’s costume. Costumes should not include blood, gore, or other disturbing elements.
Handheld Accessories: To prevent loss and accidents, please do not send your child with any handheld accessories. Costume accessories resembling weapons or deemed dangerous are not allowed.
Face Paint and Masks: Face paint should be applied at home and kept minimal for recognizability. Masks and full face coverings are not permitted, as they can hinder visibility and identification.
Dress Code Compliance: Finally, all costumes should align with our school dress code.
These guidelines are in place to ensure the safety and comfort of all our students. If a student’s costume is deemed inappropriate, they will be asked to remove it and may be sent home.
We appreciate your support in making Halloween a safe and enjoyable experience for all our students. Thank you for your cooperation!
