| ECES Halloween Reminders | http://ern.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/211 | ECES Halloween Reminders | <p>Dear ECES Parents/Guardians;<br>We wanted to give you information about how we will celebrate Halloween at our school. This year, some classes will be having a parade in the school on Thursday, October 31, and if your child wishes, he or she may wear a costume or dress in black and orange clothing.<br>As a reminder, costumes should not have replica weapons or face masks and no costumes should mimic the traditional attire of an ethnic, racial, gender or marginalized group/identity. Also, no Halloween candy or food should be brought in to the school, we strive for healthy snacks that are peanut and nut free.<br>As we approach Halloween, it is important to think about how we can make this day, which is a fun day for many students, align with our Character Attributes as an organization, and as a school. All members of the school community are expected to honour our traits and demonstrate that they care, are co-operative, honest, inclusive, respectful, responsible, and have integrity. We would also ask that you keep these traits in mind in choosing a Halloween costume for your child. Any participation in Halloween activities by students or staff is completely voluntary.<br>Thank you for your care, attention and support in ensuring our school is inclusive for all!<br>Sincerely,<br>ECES Staff</p> | | | |
