Costume Contest Rules
All Students report to Advisory at 11:55am. Teachers take attendance. If students need to be excused to put on their costumes or get their props from the office please excuse them to do so.
We will have prizes for the Categories of Most Original, Best Homemade/DIY, Funniest, Scariest, Best Couple or Group. Advisory students in your class will vote on each of these categories within your Advisory.
You DO NOT have to have one of every category. If your Advisory only has Funniest or Scariest then those two students will be the ones in the costume contest representing your Advisory class. Your class must vote first as to which top costumes will go on to the school-wide costume contest.
All students wearing a costume, regardless of winning, will receive an orange ticket. Orange tickets are good for a free otter pop today
Give all the "winners" of your advisory class contest (ie. those going on to the school wide competition) a paper that says MiddleHalloween Costume Contest 2021 and have them fill it out and bring it with them
At 12:10pm, please release the students who are participating in the costume contest to the amphitheater stage area by PE/under the stairs. Participating students will need to be in full costume and will meet on the "stage" area
At 12:15pm, after dismissing the contest students, Advisory teachers will walk their class down to the amphitheater area to view the contest. Teachers must stay with their students in the designated areas.
