Dear West Hill Parents:
In an effort to continue the tradition of a Halloween celebration at West Hill Elementary School, we will again
have a parade. Our parade is planned for Monday, October 31, 2022 at 1:30 PM. The students will begin the
parade at the upper school entrance, proceed down Ellsworth Street to Irvine Avenue, and continue walking
to the lower school parking lot to re-enter the school.
If the weather is inclement, the students will NOT parade through the gym, the parade will be cancelled.
When preparing for the parade, please keep the following in mind:
COSTUMES:
Costumes that are frightening or contain fake blood are not allowed for the parade.
As per the school board policy, costumes may not contain any type of toy weapon. For example: toy
guns, knives, swords, bats, handcuffs, etc. will not be permitted.
The student dress code will remain in place throughout the day. Students can not wear any part of
their costume or make-up to school. This also includes spray-colored or dyed hair.
Costumes must be brought to the school in a bag with the student’s name and teacher clearly
printed on the bag. Questionable items will be held in the office and returned to the student at the
end of the day.
VISITORS:
In an effort to provide a safe environment for children, we will not allow visitors in our school. The
school’s office will remain open, but visitors will not be permitted in the building. Faculty, staff, and
older children will be available to assist younger children with their costumes if needed.
TREATS:
The PTO will provide student snacks. Please do not bring in treats, as we are not permitted to deliver
them to the students.
We want to respect every parent’s right to choose to have their child participate in this celebration. If you
would like to exercise your right to have your child not participate in the parade and/or parties, please
send a note with your child to their teacher.
Please contact me at (724)981-4880 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Justin Schweiss
Principal, West Hill Elementary School
