Halloween

Halloween Parties and Parade

Halloween is fast approaching.   Each classroom will have a few  volunteers to help with the party. Only volunteers will admitted to the classrooms during the Halloween Parties.  All guests are welcome to watch the Halloween parade which will take place at 3:15 pm.  If you are planning to watch the parade from inside the building, you will need to RSVP in advance and sign in when you arrive. If you are going to view the parade from outside, you will not need to preregister.   Allow yourself plenty of time to find parking.  The blacktop will be open to parking  that day.  

Students will be dismissed right after the parade.  Please allow time for your child(ren) to get their things from their classroom after the parade.  We will not be calling students out of their classroom after the parade.  We ask that guests wait outside in their cars after the parade.  Teachers will bring students out and supervise them like normal dismissal.  Please register for the parade or volunteer with the links below.
