HALLOWEEN COSTUMES
As we get ready for Halloween festivities, we want to remind families that costumes should be school-appropriate and comfortable for a full day of learning. Please leave toy weapons (such as swords or other props), as well as gory or frightening costumes, at home. Masks may be worn during the parade only.
