Parent/Teacher Conferences
Fall Parties and Parade
On October 31st, students will have the opportunity to participate in a costume parade and class party. In order to make our school activity appropriate for the school setting, and to ensure a fun, safe, and healthy activity, please note the following policy and guidelines in place at Manchester Park.
Children, their safety, and education are top priority at this school. Because of these concerns, the guidelines listed here should be used as you select the costume your child will wear.
- No blood, guts, weapons or gore.
- No face/body paint should be brought to school eliminating the potential risk of spills and stains. (Costume make-up used to create such details as freckles or whiskers can be worn to school as long as it is not so obvious as to cause
disruptions resulting in distracting students from instruction.) - No costumes are to be worn to school. Please send the costume in a sack. Children will be given time to change into their outfit just before the party begins.
Please know the above guidelines for costumes are not meant to take the fun from this time of year, but are meant to provide boundaries that will allow students to participate in a safe and positive way. Please know we will not be able to allow costumes that fall outside of the above guidelines to be worn. The Costume Parade will be held at 2:30 and the class parties will be immediately following on October 31st.
Dismissal (Reminder)
Please note that the front drive should only be used by our day care vans and busses at dismissal. All car pickup should be done on the South side of our building. If you have a special circumstance, please let us know.
Thank you.
ID’s at the Main Entrance (Reminder)
Due to district protocol, all visitors must present a photo ID to the camera at the front door. Whether you have been here multiple times over many years or new to our school family, please plan on having your ID out and ready to show the camera.
All visitors must sign in at the front office. This will be the same at arrival, throughout the day, or dismissal.
Thank you for keeping our children safe!
