👻 Reminders for Tomorrow's Costume Parade! 🎃 Friday, October 30 at 8:45
Get those costumes ready! Here’s the quick lowdown so everyone stays safe, spooky, and school-friendly:
🎭 Parade Mask Rule: Costume masks are allowed only during the parade—they’ll need to come off for the rest of the school day so we can actually see who is learning!
🚫 Keep it Friendly: Absolutely no gory makeup, gory costumes, or pretend weapons. Save the real scares for Halloween night!
🚶 Where to Go: Enter campus on the south side of the office in the bus lane, then head straight to the grass area in the back of the school.
🍭 Boo Grams: Don't forget to grab a Boo Gram! Our awesome Parent Club will have them available for purchase.
See you all tomorrow morning! 🎃✨
👻 ¡Recordatorios para el desfile de disfraces de mañana! 🎃 Viernes 30 de octubre a las 8:45
¡Preparen sus disfraces! Aquí tienen los detalles clave para que todos estemos seguros, mantengamos el espíritu espeluznante y respetemos las normas escolares:
🎭 Regla sobre las máscaras: Las máscaras de los disfraces solo están permitidas durante el desfile; deberán retirarse el resto de la jornada escolar para que podamos ver quién está aprendiendo.
🚫 Nada de contenido inapropiado: No se permite maquillaje sangriento, disfraces con temática sangrienta ni armas de juguete. ¡Dejen los sustos de verdad para la noche de Halloween!
🚶 ¿A dónde ir?: Entren al recinto escolar por el lado sur de la oficina, en el carril de los autobuses, y diríjanse directamente a la zona de césped detrás de la escuela.
🍭 «Boo Grams» (mensajes de Halloween): ¡No olviden adquirir un «Boo Gram»! Nuestro fantástico Club de Padres los tendrá a la venta.
