UPDATED DISTRICT HALLOWEEN COSTUME GUIDELINES
If students want to come to school in costume to celebrate Halloween, costumes must meet the following guidelines:
Be respectful: Avoid stereotypes. Be racially sensitive and culturally appropriate. Students may not dress up as an ethnic or cultural group (i.e., a Mexican, a Geisha, a Native American, etc). Skin color must not be altered in any way.
Be responsible: Recognize that students in a wide age range will see the costumes. Costumes should be family friendly. Masks may not be worn. Costumes may not be gory or threatening. No make-up is allowed.
Be safe: No hand-held accessories real or pretend (i.e., wands or weapons) are allowed. Crowns or hats may be worn.
Be kind: Costumes should be fun and exciting, not political, or offensive.
Be understanding: Students may dress up as fictional characters if they follow the above guidelines.
Note: Every year in the State Title VI/Indian Education meeting, it is discussed that dressing up as Pocahontas or other Native American Leaders is inappropriate. Culture is not a costume. In respect to the Native American view, we shoudl all refrain from dressing up as Native Americans (i.e., Pocahontas, Sacagawea, Sitting Bull, etc.). This is cultural appropriation and is unacceptable.
The school competition is on the 28th at 9am.
The district competition will be on Nov. 7th or 8th
Book Fair

CORPORATE REWARDS CLASS COMPETITION!
Coca-Cola Class Competition begins Monday, October 24th and goes through the week with the class winner announced NEXT Friday. We will be doing this same competition in January and April as well, so continue to save those codes!
Codes can be found on the underside of Coke soda lids or inside of the can packages.
All the money from Corproate Rewards like this one, help fund field trips, assemblies, playground equipment, and other activities provided by the PTA.
*I'm looking for volunteers to help me scan codes. You can do it at your own pace, your own time, and from home. All you need is a phone with camera capabilities. You log into Coca-cola and use your camera to scan the codes into their system under our school's profile. If you’re available to help, please sign up under the "Corporate Rewards" tab here: https://tinyurl.com/Heritage-Volunteer-List
Thank You
