Halloween Party Volunteers:

I am still in need of volunteers for our Halloween Party on the 31st from 12:10-1:20.  If you are available, please go to the following page to sign up. Halloween Volunteers Sign-up

Movie Field Trip

On November 6th, we will be going to the IMAX theater in Centerville to enjoy a film about the Galapagos Islands.  Permission slips will be sent home next week, but concessions can be prepurchased on MyDSD. Popcorn and soda will cost $4.50 and is due THIS FRIDAY, the 24th.  Students were given a flyer giving more details and information.

Robotics

Students have an opportunity to participate in an after-school robotics club. Students were sent home with two different flyers.  One of them gives details about what it is, when it occurs, and how much it costs. The other paper is a permission slip to join. Applications are due THIS FRIDAY, the 24th. (Do not pay for the due until after students are accepted. They will find out on Monday.)

Coloring Contest is due Monday, Oct. 27th

Halloween Parade: 

Our school will host an outdoor Halloween parade at 9:15 am.  Any costumes that are distracting or uncomfortable will need to be changed out of following the parade.  Our class party will be at the end of the day.

Costume Reminders:

Be respectful: Avoid stereotypes. Be racially sensitive and culturally appropriate. Students may not dress up as an ethnic or cultural group (i.e., a Mexican, a Geisha, a Native American, etc). Skin color must not be altered in any way, including face painting.

Be responsible: Recognize that students in a wide age range will see the costumes. Costumes should be family friendly. Masks may not be worn. Costumes may not be gory or threatening. No make-up is allowed. 

Be safe: No props are allowed.  Crowns or hats may be worn. 

Be kind: Costumes should be fun and exciting, not political, or offensive. 

Be understanding: Students may dress up as fictional characters if they follow the above guidelines.
