JES Character Parade
On Wednesday, October 31st at 8:10 am, we will host a school-wide Character Parade to allow students to showcase their costumes if they so choose. This year's theme is "At the Movies."
We appreciate your help in keeping our Character Parade friendly for all children. As a result, please abide by the below guidelines when selecting your costume.
Costume Guidelines:
· We highly recommend bringing a change of clothes.
· Let's keep things fun... costumes must be appropriate for a K-4 audience; costumes that are deemed inappropriate will not be allowed in the parade and will require an immediate change of clothes.
· Please no fake blood or fake wounds, accessories that look like weapons, or costumes that suggest violence.
· The entire face must be visible at all times (no masks).
Please see the map below for the parade route. If rain is in the forecast, we’ll distribute a rain-out plan when it gets closer. To make this an enjoyable experience for everyone, please stay in the Parents Area. Thank you!
Veteran's Day
We would like to honor Our Veterans by asking that students bring in a picture (or copy of a picture) of a loved one who currently serves or has served in the Military.
Please complete the information below and return with photo by Friday, November 3. We look forward to displaying these around JES hallways throughout November. Pictures will be returned to your child once the displays have been taken down. We appreciate your participation!
