October Events:
Door Decorating Contest: Each classroom will have the opportunity to decorate their classroom door to compete against other grade level classes to win a sweet treat!

Hallway Halloween Decorations: Students may bring a decorated recycled item to put in the hallway above their cubby. It can be a tissue box, can, bottle, etc. – as long as it is smaller than a milk jug. Students may color or use any crafting materials to create their masterpiece. Please bring these on October 17th to start decorating our hallways.
Halloween Costume Parade: Students are welcome to dress up on the 31st. Masks and weapons are not allowed. Please make sure all costume preparations are done before school to help minimize any learning distractions. Our school will be having our costume parade at 2:00 on October 31st.
