MIDDLE SCHOOL NOTE:

While Middle School students will not wear costumes, they are invited to dress down in festive Halloween colors—think orange, black, purple, and green.

This year, our Middle School students will take on a special role in spreading Halloween joy throughout the school. Here’s what’s in store:

• Treat Bag Prep: Students will help assemble treat bags for our younger students in Grades 1–5.
   
• Parade Participation: They’ll attend the Halloween Parade and assist in guiding the younger students through the route.
   
• Classroom Fun: Before the parade, Middle School students will visit classrooms to hand out treats and add to the excitement.

We’re thrilled to give our Middle School students a chance to celebrate Halloween in a meaningful way, helping make the day memorable for our younger Bears while enjoying the festive spirit themselves.
