HALLOWEEN HAPPENINGS

Families, please read the note about Halloween expectations below.  There is also an update of our current work and a couple pics from the salsa party kids earned last week.  I made salsa from produce in Grant School gardens!

Halloween is right around the corner, and at Grant, we have some wonderful traditions.  One of yearly traditions is our Halloween parade that takes place around the playground.  The entire school gathers on the playground at 2:15 on Friday, October 30, for the parade which is followed by classroom parties.  All students are welcome to bring their costume to school in a bag to be put on before the parade.  Families are welcome to attend the parade and parties.  Please note the following costume restrictions:

            -no costumes may be worn to school

            -no scary or violent costumes

            -costumes must be age appropriate

            -costumes should be easy for children to put on (no make-up, etc.)
