Halloween is upon us! We will be celebrating with an outdoor parade and small classroom parties on Tuesday, October 31. In an effort to help families plan for the Halloween fun, please read through the information outlined below.
Costumes:
All costumes must be school appropriate. The expectations for everyday dress are applied to costumes. No look-a-like weapons of any kind are allowed as part of a costume. No gore, blood, or “scary” costumes. Costumes can be worn to school on October 31, or students will dress in their classrooms following the lunch hour. Due to limited time, we will not be allowing students to use the washrooms to change, therefore, costumes must be ones which can be put on over a student’s regular clothes.
Parties:
We will be having classroom parties this year! Please do not send in any edible treats with your child for their class party or for students to take home. Any food items sent to school will be returned with your child. Thank you for helping to ensure our students’ safety.
Parade:
The parade will be livestreamed on Facebook for you to enjoy remotely. You are also welcome to view the parade from any place around the perimeter of the building as long as there is no rain. Please keep the sidewalks nearest the building clear for an easy parade path. The parade will begin at the main entrance and we will exit the building to the left toward the playground. Enjoy the show!
Festivities Schedule:
1:15-1:45 All school Halloween parade around the school perimeter. The parade will be livestreamed on Facebook for you to enjoy remotely. Please see the Stevenson Facebook page to join the fun. If it rains, we will ask that all spectators join Facebook for a livestream.
