Halloween is upcoming on Thursday, October 31. Plans are being made to celebrate the event with students including a student-teacher basketball game and an afternoon pep rally/activity afternoon that we know students will enjoy.

As we approach Halloween, we want to remind everyone to celebrate this fun occasion with creativity and respect. While we encourage everyone to dress up, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

• **No Masks**: For safety and identification purposes, masks are not permitted. Feel free to get creative with face paint instead!
• **No Weapons**: Props resembling weapons are not allowed, as we want to maintain a safe and welcoming environment for all.
• **Cultural Sensitivity**: We ask that costumes avoid cultural appropriation. Please be mindful and respectful of different cultures, traditions, and identities.

Let’s celebrate Halloween with imagination and inclusivity! We can’t wait to see the fantastic costumes everyone comes up with.

Thank you for your cooperation !
