Halloween Parade
Halloween Costume Guidelines:
- Students may wear Halloween costumes but must be recognizable.
- Face painting is allowed if the student is recognizable and the painting applies to the costume being worn (i.e. whiskers for a cat, nose for a clown).
- No toy (or real) weapons are allowed at school.
- If a costume is determined by a staff member to be a disruption in the classroom, a possible safety hazard, or inappropriate the student will be asked to change.
- Students may be allowed time to change into their costume at the discretion of the teacher.
- Parents are encouraged to supervise their child's costume choice – keeping in mind that ultimately Turrill Elementary is a place of learning, safety and appropriateness.
- If students do wear inappropriate costumes, the administration reserves the right to ask them to change.
