The Willowwind community will be celebrating Halloween the afternoon of Monday, October 31st. Please visit THIS sign-up sheet if you wish to donate snack items & help with day-of set up and serving. Each snack donation is worth 30 minutes of volunteer time. Set up & serving is worth 45 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. Families are invited to join our festivities from 2:00 - 3:15 for our K-6 Halloween parade and celebration. During the hands-on portion of our Halloween festivities (2:15-2:45), we encourage parents to use the time to interact with their child(ren) and participate in the school wide fun (pumpkin guessing & Halloween games).

In addition, 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 Group Discussion time creating a "top secret" pumpkin character. Beginning today, Partner Families meet to plan out their pumpkin character and outline the pumpkin supplies needed. 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. In addition, please check-in with your child to see what other supplies they may be responsible for in creating their pumpkin character. All supplies (pumpkins included) should be brought to school by THIS Friday, October 21st. Pumpkin decorating will begin next week, so it is important that all supplies are here by Friday.
