Holidays and celebrations are cornerstones of the year in the classroom or at home. They give students something to look forward to. Halloween is just around the corner and this day can be filled with excitement for many children.

Halloween is often recognized with costumes and school activities; however, it is important that our school continues to create a sense of belonging for each and every student. Students are welcome to participate in School Halloween Activities on Tuesday, October 31st.

We recognize that not all families celebrate Halloween. October 31 is a school day like any other, and we want families to feel that they can send their children to school without disruption. Teachers will offer activities that include all students, whether they are celebrating Halloween or not.

Students and staff alike may be excited to dress up this week, but it’s important to be mindful that costumes do not include elements of cultural appropriation or other potentially offensive themes.

Our students come first, and we are committed to creating a safe and caring school community. On Halloween, and every day, our aim is to create an environment where every child feels included, valued and treated with utmost respect.

H🎃ppy H🎃lloween!
