Dear Parents,
Since Halloween falls on a Thursday this year, I want to let you know of our official stance regarding wearing costumes.
Out of love and respect for those who do celebrate Halloween and for those who do not, we would ask that students NOT dress up on October 31. We want to protect any student from feeling embarrassed, judged, or awkward because they did or did not dress up. This includes all costumes. Thank you for your understanding.
It was fun to see so many students participate in Jersey Day last week. Winners for the raffle will be picked and names posted on the white board this week.
Next Spirit Day is the last day of the semester (Christmas style). More info later.
