Halloween Parade π
- The parade will begin at approximately 10 am.
- Parents are invited to park on our basketball court and grassy field near the side of the building.
- We will have several staff members positioned outside to show families where they can stand to watch the parade.
- Please make sure student costumes are school appropriate, by avoiding weapons and masks that they would be unable to see clearly through.
- Students may change after the parade or remain in their costumes for the day.
- If your student does not wish to participate in the parade please reach out to their teacher so we can find an alternate activity for this time period.
Halloween Costume Donations
If you have any gently used Halloween costumes that you would like to donate, please send them in with your student. We will have a collection box outside of the main office. If you prefer to drop off in person there will be another collection bin in the vestibule.
We will be collecting until October 29th. More information to follow next month regarding our spooktacular Halloween Parade!!
