Students will be allowed to dress up on Monday, October 31st for Halloween. Please, no full face masks or toy weapons of any kind. Also, students typically want to change out of their costume before the day is over. Put a change of clothes in your child’s backpack to help keep them comfortable all day. Looking forward to a fun day! 👻 🎃 🍭
