Our annual Fall Festival will be on Oct 30th from 4:30 to 6:30! We will have a Trunk or Treat, Haunted House, Games, and food trucks.

We will be using wristbands this year, and each wristband is good for 2 trips at each event (trunk or treat, games, and the haunted house). Wristbands will only be sold via presale for $10 per wristband! Any child 3 and up will need a wristband to participate. Wristbands will be sold online via My School Bucks (QR Code on flyer) from 10/6 to 10/28. There is a small fee for purchasing online using your card. You can purchasethem, via cash by sending in money to the school with this form from 10/15 to 10/28. We ask that if you purchase via cash that you send in exact change.

There will be no wristband sales at the event, so it is imperative if you plan to participate you buy wristbands for all your attendees during the presale.
