Our Character Parade has a new date! We are moving from October 31 to Friday, October 24. This update will allow students to dress up for the Character Dance and still participate in all Red Ribbon Week dress up days next week.
The parade is a fun event for students and teachers to see each other’s creative book character outfits and celebrate the joy of reading together.
Students may wear school-appropriate book character outfits. Please, no full face masks, face paint that covers the entire face, or toy weapons at school.
