Halloween at Burley

10/30/2024

On Thursday, October 31, we are looking forward to a great day of learning where regular routines and structures will remain in place. There will be some end of the day celebrations including a costume parade for our kindergarten and 1st grade students. While all students are welcome to wear costumes, it is important that they do not interfere with students’ learning experience. A few things to keep in mind with regards to costumes on Thursday.

Costumes must be appropriate for school, respectful, and safe.
Costumes should not prohibit students from participating in regular school day activities, including independent use of the washroom.
No look alike weapons, masks or face coverings
No blow up costumes

Overall, we want to have a day that is the perfect mix of fun and learning - please help us to avoid costumes that could be considered offensive or disruptive to the learning environment. Thank you for your support! Please contact Principal Crall with any questions.
