Halloween: The school-wide parade will be held in the gymnasium from 8:15 to 8:45 a.m. on Friday. All parents are welcome! We ask that that parents do not follow their child to the classroom because we still have learning time in the classroom. The students may wear there costumes all day. Please follow District 12 policy on what kind of costumes/dress is allowed. Please see your child’s Monday folder for further information or email me if you have any questions.
Our Halloween party will be from 1:30 to 3:00 p.m. on Friday, October 31st. We are looking for some old, big, baggy clothes and shoes for a game. If you have some, please put your name on them and we will return them to you next week. In addition, if you would like to donate plates and napkins for the party, please let me know.
