This is Principal Grover with a special announcement!
This Friday, October 30th, we are going to try something we haven't done in a very long time—Halloween Dress-Up Day!
We want to give our students an opportunity to have a little fun, show their creativity, and enjoy the day together. However, we also want to make sure we do it responsibly so we can consider continuing this tradition in the future.
Here are a few important expectations:
No masks or costume weapons will be allowed.
Students must arrive at school already dressed in their costumes or be able to put them on independently.
Parents should not take students out of class to help them change into costumes.
Costumes must be school-appropriate and allow students to participate safely in their regular learning activities.
Our goal is to make this a fun, positive experience while keeping learning and safety our priorities.
We're excited to give this a try, and with everyone's cooperation, we're hopeful it can become something our students look forward to each year!
Thank you, families, for your continued support. Have a wonderful day! Doctor Grover.
