For Your Information……

Halloween Parade: Students are welcome to wear their costumes to school. Because of this, parents will not need to come to the school to dress students. Masks are not allowed to be worn at school, but can be worn in the parade as long as your child can see where they are going. There are NO WEAPONS (including plastic) allowed! The parade will begin promptly at 12:45pm. The route starts at Cache Valley Bank then north to the pharmacy, west to the city hall, along the north side of main street back to the red church where the kids will be loaded on the bus to return to the school. Non-students will not be allowed to participate in the parade. Please be courteous of this decision as we want everyone to stay safe. Students can not be taken from the parade. Due to different arrival times back to the school, we ask that you allow your student to stay in school until dismissal at 2:30.
