McAuliffe Messenger

October 27, 2022

Dear McAuliffe Families,


Take time to give your child a hug and a high five for finishing the first quarter with flying colors! In each classroom that we walk into, we hear student conversations and see learning that impresses us. We are proud of the work of our teachers, staff and students. Please continue to support your student as we enter a more challenging second quarter.


We begin the second quarter on Halloween! Here is the schedule of events for the day:


*8:45 Costume parade


Weather permitting, this will take place outside. The students will parade around the perimeter of the school. No matter where you stand you will be able to see each student! If the weather does not cooperate, the parade will be indoors and spectators will be able to view in the commons and gym.


*9:30-10:30 Classroom parties


*11:10 Dismissal


NO MASKS ALLOWED. Please be cautious with inflatable costumes, they can be difficult for students to navigate. Food items are not allowed for classroom parties. We are looking forward to a fun-filled day!


Sincerely,


Dr. Szczasny

Ms. Folliard
