Halloween On Monday!
Costume Guidelines!
Just so we are all on the same page when it comes to costumes being worn at school on Monday. We are allowing costumes to be worn, but they do need to fall into the below listed guidelines:
1. All Costumes must adhere to ALL School Policies and the School Dress Code.
2. Costume accessories must be left at home (swords, wands, any imitation weapon, etc...).
3. Costumes cannot make fun of any individual, group, or culture.
4. Inflatable costumes cannot be worn in class, but may be inflated during any costume contest.
5. Students may not wear masks that cover their face entirely.
6. Costumes that promote blood and violence will not be permitted and should be left for after school.
7. Character Costumes must be "G" Rated.
8. School Administrators will make final determinations on the appropriateness of costumes as needed.
With these guidelines followed, everyone should have a great day this coming Monday!
