Autumn Celebrations: Halloween Quick Reminders
Winston Campus Elementary will be celebrating Halloween on Monday, October 31 in the afternoon, classroom instruction will be occurring in the AM.
The Winston Elementary parade is scheduled to start around 12:30 pm with the classroom parties to follow.
Parents can view the parade as the route will travel outside the building weather permitting. Students will be exiting the building through the B wing doors on North Babcock Drive and walking around the large soccer/baseball fields and re-enter the front of the school. Spectators are not permitted inside the building (Only pre-approved room parents that will be volunteering for classroom parties at 12:30 will be allowed into the building and must be checked in at our front office).
Food is not permitted at classroom parties.
Students are encouraged to bring/wear a costume to school that can easily be put on/off over their clothing. Students are not encouraged to be signed out to change into costumes.
Per the Student Handbook: Students are permitted to wear costumes on Halloween as long as their attire complies with the above student appearance policy and meets the following set of expectations for a school setting:
Children should not wear bloody, gruesome, or especially scary costumes. Costumes involving fake blood are not allowed.
Actual weapons, look-alike weapons, toy weapons or weapon-like objects are not allowed.
Masks that cover the face and head are not allowed.
Costume make-up is allowed provided it does not cover the student’s entire face. Staff members must be able to identify students.
Costumes that could be offensive or perpetuate a stereotype about someone’s culture, gender, heritage or religion are not allowed.
Costumes should follow our school dress code.
All volunteers as well as parade watchers are to park in the church parking lot or on the side streets. Please do not park in coned off church parking spots. You may be ticketed. Parking is always very limited at Winston Campus. Please try to walk to school if possible!
We are aware that some families do not celebrate Halloween or Fall Festivities. If you wish for your child to not participate in the parade or festivities, please reach out to your child’s classroom teacher.
