Important Halloween Parade and Day Tips
If you have any questions while waiting for the parade, Mr. A. will be outside to help you. Spectators should wait on the sidewalk, parking lot entrance, or grass areas near the parking lot for the parade.
We will march around twice and then convene on the upper black-top.
After the parade, please join us on the black-top behind the school, to take class pictures.
There are usually many spectators, so make sure to arrive early so that you secure a good viewing spot.
Class parties are for the students only and will occur immediately after the parade. If you are a room parent helping with a party, please enter the building through the front door only and check-in at the office.
Children may bring their costumes or wear their costumes to school. Please label all costume items with your child’s name. (Any items brought to school should be in a labeled bag.) We do not want any lost Halloween costumes!
No costume weapons are permitted of any kind.
Adults are encouraged to dress-up, but please refrain from masks and scary costumes that may upset young children.
