Dear Parents,
As a student here in the seventies, the Halloween Festival was one of the most memorable events I attended. I loved watching my teachers, the school secretaries, the priest and all my friends dress up in costume. This quickly became a tradition for my own family, and continues today for my grandchildren.
"Check in" with us TOMORROW NIGHT so you can make your own memories, start your own tradition, and join your friends for an event that promises to be a “monstrously” good time! There’s going to be so many rides, games, food options and entertainment, it is going to be fantastic!
There’s still time to turn in your raffle tickets – you have until noon tomorrow to turn in for a chance at a stay-cation, a $1500 gift card, brand new bicycles, an IPad mini, and so much more! We’re at 82% participation, and have reached $60,000, and that means
Free dress next week, ALL WEEK, except for Thursday.
THANK YOU for SELLING RAFFLE TICKETS!
I’m checking into the pumpkin patch tomorrow night! But first, I cannot wait to see your costume!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN,
Mrs. Drabek
Principal
