The Primary Connection
October 4, 2024
Notes from the Office
This past week was a wonderful week of low-tech learning at the Primary.
We are at the time of the year where it is cool in the morning and warm in the afternoon. If you have your kids dress in layers, they will be warm enough in the morning and cool enough for the afternoons.
Additionally, if your child has been wearing a sweatshirt to school and it hasn't made it home, you may want to check out our lost and found. It is filling up quickly with lost jackets and sweatshirts.

Halloween
Edwardsburg has a long standing custom of not having Halloween parties. This year, the K-2 buildings are going to try to have costume parties. However, we are placing some pretty strict guidelines on costumes for two reasons: 1) we need to protect the innocence of our young students and 2) what might not be scary for some students, may be terrifying for others.
Party information will come from individual classrooms.
When picking out a costume for your child, please follow the following guidelines:
- All costumes are to be appropriate for school and should not be offensive in design or intent.
- Costumes cannot feature inappropriate themes or characters or reference drugs/alcohol etc.
- Props including plastic swords, guns, wands, bows, arrows, etc. are not permitted. If brought to school, these items will be held in the office until a parent/guardian can pick them up.
- Please avoid costumes that are overly scary, including any variance of a clown costume.
- Face painting and hair coloring should be done at home.
- No "blood"
We would really like this to be a fun event for our students, so please help us make it fun for everyone by adhering to our costume requests.
