We will be hosting our annual Halloween parade on October 28th at 9:00 am. Parents who attend will be asked to line the fences inside the large fenced in area behind the school. Our students will then parade around the area showing off their costumes. We encourage our students to dress as community helpers or what they want to be when they grow up. Please no scary costumes as they sometimes terrify some of our students. Hope to see you all there
