Halloween - Reminders
Halloween will be acknowledged in a variety of ways. Please note, students are not required to participate in Halloween activities - non-Halloween based activities will be available.
Staff will be providing detailed information to families, however, school-wide expectations are provided below:
- No Halloween masks are to be worn.
- No replica weapons of any kind are allowed.
- Sharing of make-up is not recommended.
- Costumes should be respectful of others. Symbols or objects representative of a person’s race, culture, ethnicity, or religious beliefs should not be worn as another person’s costume, nor should costumes that caricature social identities through stereotyping.
