Happy Halloween. Be safe while trick or treating.

I have been working with the Student Council on getting some monthly theme days to increase school spirit. The first one they requested is a pajama day. I decided we can one per month on the second Wednesday of the month and we will call it “Wacky Wednesday”. The December theme will be “Favorite Sports Team”. Pajama Day–November 8th No slippers, pajamas must be school appropriate Favorite Sports Team Day–December 13th

Yesterday I met with the Student Council and they made their case to allow students to wear costumes on Halloween. They presented guidelines that need to be followed and made a good case. We don’t do very many things for school spirit and I think the students will enjoy this opportunity. I got into this business to work with kids and see them happy. We will allow students to wear costumes with the following guidelines: No masks No face paint No blow up costumes No props No weapons Costume must be school appropriate

Halloween--No costumes are allowed at school on Halloween

Veterans MS Orchestra and Band members along with their teacher, Mr. Daigle, are visiting elementary schools to encourage future students to join the fun! This morning they put on quite a performance for Oakland Beach 5th graders! Did you know they perform during lunches throughout the year, followed by a celebratory pizza party? Awesome. Big thanks to our MS students for sharing how beneficial and enjoyable music is with their future peers! For some video of their performance, check out Warwick Public School's Instagram.
