The Willowwind community will be celebrating Halloween the afternoon of Friday, October 31. Please visit THIS sign-up sheet if you wish to donate snack items. Each snack donation is worth 30 minutes of volunteer time.
Students will be asked to bring their costumes to school. We ask that costumes not be too scary. No weapons, blood, or gore will be permitted. We understand that costumes often include these things, but please save them for trick-or treating to avoid the disruption at school. Students will change into their costumes for our afternoon celebration, but are expected to wear their normal clothes to school for morning activities. The schedule for our festivities is below. Families are invited to join our festivities from 2:00 - 3:15.

Each year, Partner Families cherish the Halloween season as it gives them opportunity to spend time and work together. Preparing for Halloween, each Partner Family spends GD time creating a "top secret" pumpkin character. This year, students are charged with designing their pumpkin to represent a person, real or fictional, that displays a "gritty" attitude. Next week, Partner Families will meet to plan out their pumpkin character and outline the pumpkins needed.
This year, Kindergarten students are in charge of bringing the pumpkin. Take time with your child early this week to select a medium sized pumpkin to bring into Willowwind. Pumpkins of all sizes can be found at HyVee for $3.99. Please be sure your child brings in their pumpkin by THIS Friday, October 24th. Pumpkin decorating will begin next week, so it is important that all supplies are here.
Let me know if you have questions. Happy pumpkin shopping and happy Halloween!
