Halloween Party Reminders
Please understand that students will not have use of the washrooms for costume changes. The students will have a classroom designated for girls and another designated for boys to get ready for the costume parade. If your student needs a mirror for applying makeup, he/she should bring one from home. Also, remember that costumes must be appropriate for school. No weapons of any kind will be permitted. Students may need to alter costumes slightly for our school celebration.
