Halloween Party!!!

Dear parents of 4th grade students,

As you know it is that time of year again where ghouls, goblins,wizards,witches, and monsters celebrate their magical existence. It is also the time where we remember and honor all the saints (past and present) that have provided examples of how to love and live a faithful life as Jesus did.
In honoring our beloved saints, the 4th grade will have a Halloween party this Friday afternoon (10/29). Students may come to school dressed in costumes, if not they must wear their uniforms. Please feel free to bring snacks, beverages (no soda), and two bags of candy. One bag is to provide the pre-k and kindergarten with candy as they parade around the school into every classroom. The other is for the students to share amongst themselves at the party.

Thank you for your cooperation,
Mr. Badia
Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!!
