Friday is not Halloween. Friday, October 29, we will be going to Willard Library for ghost stories and a tour of the library. We will come back to school to eat pizza and carve pumpkins. Regular dismissal.
ON MONDAY, which is HALLOWEEN:
Children may come to school in costumes. If appropriate, children should wear shorts and t-shirts under costumes so that mid day, they can take off the costume. If the costume is comfortable and not an issue, they may keep the costume on all day and won’t need shorts under.
COSTUMES: no masks or weapons. Children may have their faces painted. We will be on the bus in the morning, so please consider sitting on a bus when choosing your child’s Halloween costume.
MONDAY, we will be going to the nursing homes in Boonville and one in Evansville to sing to the elderly and deliver what gifts we have collected this month.
Collections for the elderly are still going on!!! Please plan to give!
At lunch time, we will again pick up pizza and return to school for Halloween fun in the afternoon. School dismisses at 4:00 promptly so that children have time to trick or treat.
There is no Adult party this year. After much discussion, we felt that Halloween is for the kids, and it was too difficult for parents to come to eight parties, so we chose the four parties that were the most important and Halloween was not one of them.
