Halloween Party:
Halloween Party Information!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Halloween Party in on Monday, October 31st.
Party starts after everyone is in their costumes (1:30ish). We take a group picture and the party starts! We will have centers with fun activities. At 2:15 the students sit in their table spots and watch other students parade through the classroom. Then our class joins the end of the parade to go through all the classrooms! We will be parading through the gym (parents are welcome to grab a seat in the gym and watch us as we parade through! Then we will return back to our classroom and continue our party.
Please help your child:
*put their costume in a bag - DO NOT WEAR COSTUME TO SCHOOL. We will change into our
costumes after lunch.
*no weapons or violent/bloody costumes
*please do not send treats to school - we have several students with allergies.
