Can you believe Halloween is almost here? To have some fun, we will allow our scholars to wear their school-appropriate costumes to school on Monday, October 31st. Please remember, no masks, face paintings, or weapon-typed costume props. Also, please make sure your child wears regular shoes and will be able to easily maneuver their costumes by themselves so that they can use the bathroom or participate in classroom activities. We can't wait to see you all dressed up!
