Our parade route will have students exiting the building through the circle driveway doors (Door 3), walking the perimeter of the school across the playground and entering the school at Door 9 (5th grade door). Our AM KDG students will follow the same route. They will parade at 8:55 a.m. Parents and families are welcome to stand outside on the blacktop and watch the parade. IF IT IS RAINING HEAVILY the parade will be cancelled. The parties will still take place. 

STRICT costume guidelines: NO weapons with costumes and no masks or hoods covering faces. Children will change into their costumes BEFORE the classroom parties. Students do not wear costumes or face makeup to school (EXCEPT KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS). AM KDG students are welcome to come back to school to join the all school parade at 3:10.
