Greetings, Falcon Families!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In an effort to balance our academic routines
\nwith important social and cultural opportunities for our students, we\u2019d like to
\nshare information on our classroom celebrations.\u00a0 We hope this helps your
\nfamily to plan and enjoy some exciting social milestones in your elementary
\nchild\u2019s experience. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Several holiday-centered celebrations have
\ndeveloped into traditions in our building.\u00a0 Students and their families
\nlook forward to these special themes and celebrations, and it may be helpful to
\nknow these traditions as your child progresses through school.\u00a0 Halloween,
\nin particular, is an exciting time.\u00a0 We
\nwish to tie our school celebration to curriculum to use our time wisely, create
\nexcitement surrounding learning pieces (such as reading, Wisconsin history, and
\nscience), and remain sensitive to families\u2019 unique approaches to this
\ntraditional holiday.\u00a0 Our grade levels celebrate at the end of October in
\nthe following themes:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We ask that families refrain from dressing their
\nchild with potentially scary accessories such as fake blood, weapons, masks,
\netc.\u00a0 Please also keep in mind that costumes worn for the entire school
\nday still need to allow for daily activities.\u00a0
\nStudents will still need to go to recess, physical education class,
\nperform typical daily tasks, eat lunch, etc.\u00a0 These guidelines help all
\nstudents to enjoy the day.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While our themes are intended to spark
\ncreativity and support learning, we understand that the themes may not coincide
\nwith your family\u2019s chosen costumes for this traditional holiday. \u00a0Please
\ndon\u2019t feel that you need to make an additional purchase to enjoy this school
\ndress-up experience. <\/b>\u00a0Our school mission, vision, and commitments
\nemphasize innovation<\/u><\/b>, so it\u2019s great to see creative use of common
\nclothing or materials to share the excitement of imagination! \u00a0<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Please feel free to contact your child\u2019s teacher
\nor the school office with specific questions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
