Fall Festival

We are planning to celebrate with our annual Fall Festival on Friday, October 31.  We will enjoy an afternoon of fun, food, games, blow-ups, and more.  Our fun will last from 10:30-12:00 for pre-K – 2^nd grade, and from 12:30-2:00 for 3^rd-5^th grade on the track besides PCES.  BE sure to make plans to come out and join us.

Admission for the event will be $5.  Money can be sent to your student’s teacher beginning September 29.  The admission will allow your child access to the blow-ups and games that we will have.  Students will need additional money to purchase tickets for the food items that will be on sale, as well as for the crafts that will be available for them to do.  Tickets are $0.50 each, and will be on sale the day of the festival. 

Students will be allowed to wear their costumes for the fall festival this year.  However, costumes are to be fun and NOT scary or gory.  In addition, students will not be allowed to wear masks for safety reasons.

In order for our fall festival to be a success we need your help.  Please donate bags of candy and/or volunteer your time.  On the day of the event, we will need help setting up and operating games, and help ensuring that our students have a fun, safe environment. 

This is going to be a blast!! Thanks for your help!!
