From the Student Council Advisor Ms. Jaramillo:
Happy Thursday Everyone!
Student council, staff, administration, and our board have been doing a great job working together to help put some amazing activities together for our students for Halloween. You all go above and beyond and it is very much appreciated! Thank you all for everything you do for our school, kiddos, and community! Here is the plan for Halloween day. If you have any questions please let me know.

This is where we will vote on class activities that students worked on as a group, do a contest for best dressed for Halloween costumes, and the Student Council will lead some fun activities.
