Halloween Costume Guidelines<\/strong>: We want students to have a safe and fun Halloween if they choose to celebrate. Please follow these guidelines:<\/p>

  2. Weapons, real or fake, are not allowed.<\/p><\/li>\n

  3. Costumes that could be offensive or perpetuate a stereotype of someone\u2019s culture, gender, sexuality, heritage, or religion are not permitted.<\/p><\/li>\n

  4. Costumes should not hinder your ability to participate in your classes; costumes may not present safety issues in the hallway.<\/p><\/li>\n

    Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences on 10\/30 and 11\/6<\/strong>: We encourage students to attend with parents\/guardians so they have an opportunity to be a part of planning for next steps towards improvement and success in the conferences on 10\/30 and 11\/6, or if you have a meeting outside of those dates. On 10\/30, parking will be very limited due to both in-person conferences and PFA-sponsored Diwali celebration at the MUR. Please carpool or walk to our campus if possible.\u00a0
