Halloween at Dale Street
The Dale Street staff enjoys making Halloween a safe, exciting, and consistent experience for all students. On Wednesday, October 31st, all of our classrooms:
- encourage all students to dress up in their costumes. Please note that students’ faces may not be covered with a mask, hood, or other item. Please do not allow your child to bring fake weapons into school to accompany his/her costume, and particularly violent themes should be avoided.
- will have Halloween themed activities. Activities will be teacher-directed and run throughout the day.
- will have classroom snacks sent into school on October 31st. The Head Room Parent will be coordinating this effort. Please keep food and drink to these four categories: something crunchy, something sweet, a healthy fruit, and water. Additionally, please be sensitive of allergies within classrooms. The snack time and the Halloween themed activities will take place at different times depending on students’ schedules.
We understand, and are happy that the children will receive a plethora of treats on Halloween night. Come Thursday, the staff at Dale Street encourages healthy foods for student snack times to help promote optimal learning. Thank you in advance for your continued support.
