As we approach October 31st, I want to remind our families of a few guidelines we have in place to make our dress-up fun, inclusive, and comfortable for the child.

A costume should NOT:

• Get in the way of a child using the bathroom by him/herself.
• Have a full face mask.
• Be exceptionally gory as to frighten our little ones.
• Have weapons (even toys ones) that are part of the costume and brought with them.
  No real, facsimile, or toy weapons are to ever be at school.
• Have a LARGE amount of face paint that will become a problem later in the day.

All students need to wear appropriate shoes for school, and if you think they may get tired of their costume later in the day, please send a change of clothes in their backpack. This will help us not have to call you midday about a crying little that no longer likes wearing their costume.

We have three new extra-curricular clubs coming to Sierra Hills School.
