The Halloween Parade is Coming
All WES students are invited to participate in our annual Halloween Parade on 10/31. We have some exciting musical accompaniment planned! The high school band will march in front of us. (Their bus will park on School Street, so please do not park on School Street the afternoon of the parade.) The parade begins at roughly 2:10pm and goes down South Street by the Inn, past the Norman Williams Library, circles the intersection of Central and Elm Streets, and comes back through the center of the Green to the school. We do not wear costumes during the day until the parade is about to start. All students put on costumes at about 1:45pm. It is best to send your student with a version of their costume that your student can independently put on. If adult assistance is required, please contact your classroom teacher about the right time to come by and help. No fake or real weapons props are allow. We hope to see you there!
