We will have a Halloween Parade at 11:15am , rain or shine. Weather permitting, students will be walking around the school with their class. Parents and family are welcome to come to watch the parade! As a reminder, NO PETS are allowed on school grounds. If the weather is wet, we will parade in the gym and hallways. Parents are welcome to take their child after the parade, please be sure to check them out with your child's teacher.


With gratitude,
