The Halloween parade will start PROMPTLY at 9:30 A.M. on Friday, October 29. We are asking that you report to HCE/RMS AFTER 9:15AM. This is critical in ensuring an uninterrupted timely arrival for our car riders.
6th grade will lead the parade with descending grade levels following (i.e. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, KAM).Students will exit through the side of the 4th grade hallway doors (playground), down the sidewalk in front of the school and proceed around to the 1st grade hallway doors to re-enter the building. We will circle this route two times.
Parents are encouraged to watch the parade on the blacktop area in the front of the school. This is also known as our bus loading zone. Parents please do not enter onto the playground side of the building; as you will not have a good view of the parade.
To ensure safety of our students, staff and spectators, the parking lot to enter HCE/RMS WILL CLOSE at 9:30 AM. All late arrivals should park at the STAR Center and walk to HCE/RMS.
THERE WILL BE SPECIFIC BLOCKADES IN THESE AREAS. THIS ALLOWS FOR OUR PROCESSIONAL TO MOVE WITHOUT INTERRUPTIONS. THESE BLOCKADES ARE STRATEGICALLY PLACED BY HILLCREST PERSONNEL FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS.
DO NOT REMOVE OR ENTER BEYOND BLOCKADES.

REMEMBER: PARKING IS NEVER PERMITTED IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING
The Council Rock School District has a weapons policy that covers weapons of all kinds. If your child’s costume involves a weapon, do not bring it to school. Also, any other costume items like hockey sticks and baseball bats, should not be brought to school because of the potential for injury both on the bus and in the classroom. Please, refrain from costumes depicting horror or violence. Your support is greatly appreciated! Some forethought and discussion with your child will help to make our Halloween celebration safe and fun for all students.
ATTENTION: PM KINDERGARTEN
Ms. Metz will send home separate information regarding the KPM Parade and festivities.

THE PARADE WILL BE CANCELLED IN THE EVENT OF INCLEMENT WEATHER. WE WILL MAKE THE DECISION AT 8:30AM.
