Halloween Info
- Parade: A short "Halloween Parade" will take place beginning at 10:00AM on Monday, October 31st. Weather permitting, we will parade outside and around the senior home next door. Our 6th grade students will lead the parade around each classroom and then outside. All are welcome to come and watch our costume parade outdoors!
- Classroom Activities: Classrooms/grade levels will be planning for Halloween activities and celebrations individually, either before or after the parade. If teachers request parent volunteers to help facilitate the classroom activities, all volunteers will have to submit a Background Check.
- Costumes: Students may come to school in costume on Monday, October 31st. They can stay in costume for the duration of the day. Costumes need to be school appropriate and cannot depict violence or excess blood/gore. No fake weapons are allowed in school (i.e. toy guns, swords, blades, etc). Costume masks can be worn for the parade, but not throughout the day. For costumes that have short skirts/shorts, leggings or pants need to be worn underneath.

5th and 6th Grade Band Update
Exciting News! The district has hired a new teacher and the program will resume on Monday, November 14th.
While we are in transition with our new teacher, your student can still be working on their band skills while at home. Below are some recommendations of at home activities from Mr. Rodgers.
5th Grade
Students can use the "Essential Elements" book that they purchased on rental night to read and learn how to put the instrument together, hold the instrument, and produce a tone. They can also look at the "Fingering Chart" in the back of the book to learn how to finger notes and try to produce them. In addition, students can sign up for "Essential Elements Interactive" for additional resources. This information is found on the first two pages of the book.
Below are some helpful videos your student can watch to help learn how to put their instrument together.
6th Grade
Students should continue to review what they were working on in the "Essential Elements" book. Review previous music and look ahead to new music and concepts in the book.
Thank you for your support and flexibility during this transition.
