HALLOWEEN COSTUME DAY OFFICIAL GUIDLINES H The purpose of the DRESSING UP FOR HALLOWEEN is to have fun and to create spirit in the school. The purpose of his day is to align to our core value of “Unitas”. This is not a dress down day. Students who decide not to participate are to be dressed according to the regular school dress code. • ID cards must be worn at all times and all other dress code policies will still be enforced. A • All students participating must come to school dressed in their costumes -- time is not permitted for getting ready in the building. Therefore, students should not bring makeup or hair products to school. Anyone found with those item will have them confiscated and they will not be returned. • Candy is also not allowed in the building -- save your trick-or-treating for the weekend. • Students who wish to participate must be dressed in appropriate costumes, costumes that are creative, costumes that are in good taste, costumes that do not hurt or bring embarrassment to the school, parents or L the student himself. The student is responsible for knowing whether something is appropriate or not. If you have a question as to whether a costume is appropriate or not ask the Dean of Men, Mr. Partacz.

We are sure that NO STUDENT WILL FORCE THEIR TEACHERS OR THE ADMINISTRATION TO ISSUE PUNISHMENTS OR GIVE DETENTIONS by abusing and/or taking advantage of the privilege given to them. L THE DEAN OF MEN WILL HAVE THE FINAL SAY AS TO WHETHER COSTUMES ARE APPROPRIATE OR NOT. BASIC COSTUME RULES • Costumes may not have parts that interfere with learning.
