Greetings, Falcon Families!
In an effort to balance
our academic routines with important social and cultural opportunities for our
students, we’d like to share information on our classroom celebrations.
We hope this helps your family to plan and enjoy some exciting social
milestones in your elementary child’s experience.
Several holiday-centered
celebrations have developed into traditions in our building. Students and
their families look forward to these special themes and celebrations, and it
may be helpful to know these traditions as your child progresses through school.
Halloween, in particular, is an exciting time. We wish to tie our school
celebration to curriculum to use our time wisely, create excitement surrounding
learning pieces (such as reading, Wisconsin history, and science), and remain
sensitive to families’ unique approaches to this traditional holiday. Our
grade levels celebrate at the end of October in the following themes:

We ask that families
refrain from dressing their child with potentially scary accessories such as
fake blood, weapons, masks (other than their current face covering), etc.
Please also keep in mind that costumes worn for the entire school day still
need to allow for daily activities. Students will still need to go to
recess, physical education class, perform typical daily tasks, eat lunch,
etc. These guidelines help all students to enjoy the day.
While our themes are
intended to spark creativity and support learning, we understand that the
themes may not coincide with your family’s chosen costumes for this traditional
holiday. Please don’t feel that you need to make an additional
purchase to enjoy this school dress-up experience. Our school
mission, vision, and commitments emphasize innovation, so it’s
great to see creative use of common clothing or materials to share the
excitement of imagination!
In previous years, your
child’s classroom may have hosted a brief celebration including treats, outside
visitors, etc. We ask that you do not send treats this year for safety
reasons. We will focus on celebrating the themes within our school
community that do not tie to food.
Please feel free to
contact your child’s teacher or the school office with specific questions.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Lynn Bub, SFES Principal Shelley Hyde,
SFES Associate Principal
