HALLOWEEN SPIRIT WEEK AT GIBSON:

Get ready for a week of fun and school spirit! Students and staff are invited to take part in our Halloween Spirit Week. Participation is optional, so feel free to join in on the days you’d like. Whether you participate for one day or the whole week, we look forward to seeing your creativity and school spirit. Please remember that all costumes and spirit wear should be school-appropriate and respectful.

 

HALLOWEEN

We are so excited to celebrate Halloween once again with our Gibson Halloween Parade on Friday, October 30st at 9:15am.  Parents are welcome to join us in our gym for our parade. Please enter through the gym doors, at the side of the school . Feel free to bring any tiny-tots or pre-schoolers you may have at home to join in on the fun!

One last Reminder about Halloween Costumes at School:

  • should not be too scary
  • should be age appropriate
  • should not promote illegal activities, drugs/alcohol, be offensive
  • should not perpetuate a stereotype of someone’s culture, gender, heritage, or religion
  • must be safe & comfortable.  Students must be able to sit, walk, breathe, see and hear.  Anything that limits vision or restricts movement can lead to falling & other injuries. That’s no fun on Halloween!  (students may wear masks during the parade, though)
  • must be in line with our dress guidelines (students are sufficiently covered and dressed for the weather)

Also:

  • toy weapons are not to be brought to school
  • not all students like to dress up (and that’s ok too!)
  • since costumes worn to school may not survive the day intact, consider a spare/alternate costume and save the “real” one for trick or treating that night

We look forward to a fun Halloween at Gibson!
