Costume Guidelines for Halloween:
If students want to come to school in costume to celebrate Halloween, costumes must meet the following guidelines:
Be respectful: Avoid stereotypes. Be racially sensitive and culturally appropriate. Students may not dress up as an ethnic or cultural group (i.e., a Mexican, a Geisha, a Native American, etc). Skin color must not be altered in any way.
Be responsible: Recognize that students in a wide age range will see the costumes. Costumes should be family friendly. Masks may not be worn. Costumes may not be gory or threatening. No scary, bloody, or gory make-up is allowed.
Be safe: No hand-held accessories real or pretend (i.e., wands or weapons) are allowed. Crowns or hats may be worn.
Be kind: Costumes should be fun and exciting, not political, or offensive.
Be Understanding: Students may dress up as fictional characters if they follow the above guidelines.
Be Timely: All celebrations should be limited in time and held at the beginning or end of the school day.
Community Council meeting times have changed this year. Meeting times will be the 4th Friday of the month at 7:45 a.m. Please make note of this change. Zoom link is updated under the Community Council tab. Thanks!
