Storm Families,
This Halloween, we’re excited to celebrate in a fun and simple way! On October 31st, all students are encouraged to show their Halloween spirit by wearing a festive Halloween-themed shirt to school.
🎃 No costumes, please – let’s keep it easy and focus on the fun vibes of Halloween without costumes.
🕸️ Shirts with Halloween colors or school appropriate designs are perfect!
Thank you for helping us make this day a memorable one!
