When entering the gym, students should look for student leaders with signs indicating their grade level. (See Gym diagram in Mr. Hamilton's week ahead)

important note on costumes

We are excited to dress up in our costumes on Monday and show them off at our Halloween Costume Catwalk Assembly! Prizes will be awarded at the assembly for FUNNIEST, SCARIEST, MOST ORIGINAL & BEST GROUP COSTUME. 

We do need to ensure our costumes are appropriate for the school environment and respectful of others, their cultures and religions, avoiding cultural appropriation. Considering our choices as we craft our Halloween costumes will help us grow in our intercultural competence and move our community towards one that embodies cultural humility.
