As most of you know Hallowe’en is quickly approaching and we have had many inquiries into how we will be acknowledging that and if we are acknowledging that here at Janet Metcalfe PS.  As a staff, we have decided that for those students and families that like to acknowledge Hallowe’en they will be encouraged to wear orange and/or black on the actual day, Oct. 31st.  We will be having a dress-up spirit day on the Friday of that week where the whole school will celebrate pajama day.  This will give students an opportunity to dress differently as a school in a way that does not require the purchase of a special costume and does not require school staff monitoring whether what the students are wearing is frightening for our little ones.  Thank you for your continued support and if you have questions or concerns please don’t be afraid to call me at 519-514-0105.
