Halloween--Pre-K Through 8th Grades

       Halloween is always a time for great fun.  For the past few years, all of us at St. Cletus have been dressing up for Halloween in a fun costume.  This year we will celebrate at the school on Thursday, October 31, with parties and costumes.  Please follow the guidelines below, and, students, come dressed for the day in your costumes:

• Pre-school students: please follow the guidelines and information sent home by your pre-school teachers.
• Costumes must be comfortable for all-day wearing--learning continues throughout the day.
• Leave all props at home: wands, gloves, brooms, whistles, etc.
• No masks, please--they can block vision.  Try makeup instead.  Remember, the children will be wearing this makeup all day.
• Wear comfortable shoes--gym shoes are preferred.  We will still have gym class and recess.
• Costumes must be school appropriate--NO violent or gory costumes, such as Freddy, Jason, etc.  However, skeletons, witches, Dracula, etc. are fine.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.  This should be a "spooky day" for all.  HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
