October Smore templates are ready for you
TL;DR:
October brings five new templates to your Smore library: two Halloween options, an interactive IEP template built for translation, National Bullying Prevention Month resources, and a weekly update built for school readiness. Grab whichever ones your school needs and customize them in minutes.
Halloween, handled two ways
Two templates, two different jobs. Halloween Activities is the fun one 🎃, puzzles and jokes and a “Boo!” energy that gets a smile before anyone even scrolls. Halloween Message to Families does the practical work, costume guidelines, party schedules, safety reminders, all wrapped in a spooky-not-scary design that earns a full read.
An IEP that’s easy to update and easy to read
Put an IEP onto a Smore newsletter, and it becomes a living document. Photos and video make a child’s goals feel real, and translation makes it accessible: families pick their preferred language the first time they open it, and Smore auto-translates the newsletter for them on every visit after that. Update it as goals change, and families stay on the same page all year.

Resources for National Bullying Prevention Month
Bullying drives absenteeism at every grade level, and this template gives you one ready-made way to talk about it with students, staff, and families. It’s built for the whole building, with resources for principals, educators, students, families, and bus drivers.

A weekly update that keeps families oriented
October Weekly Update does exactly what it says. Drop in the week’s schedule, add the details families need most, and load it up with photos—still the fastest way to earn a scroll-stopping open. Send it Monday morning at drop-off, when families already have their phones in hand, and the whole week starts on the same page.
Five templates, one job, lots of orange 🎃. Grab the ones your school needs and start customizing.
