Halloween has always been October 31--that's the way it's been for thousands of years, and that's the way it should be. If you don't want to celebrate Halloween, then don't--nobody's forcing you to!

Guidelines are a given when it comes to wearing costumes in an educational space, but it doesn't make sense to ban costumes on a holiday based on dressing up!

Kids only get to be little for a very short time. I think it's imperative to let them enjoy being children while they can! They grow up way too fast as it is.

Amanda L Olmeda

Let them be kids for as long as possible!! They grow up too fast as it is. Sage Elementary doesn’t allow costumes either but my middle schoolers and high schooler was allowed to dress up.

Emmalyn Rocheleau

You’re only a kid once... let them enjoy it while it lasts.

Sam Ackerman

Live is distracting. Let the kids learn to deal with them.

Why not? OR is already in 48th place among the 50 states in ranking. They are allowed in many states with much higher school rankings besides the worst that could happen is OR take over 50th place.

Ka San

School already can be a place of "have-to-be-there," so why not try to engage / excite students who might not be engaged / excited otherwise. It may even help with the bulling epidemic.

Kimberly Scott Smith

Yes it is for fun and the kids and most adults love it. It is a great excuse to do something fun and different from the ordinary. Love the creativity it brings out in kids and adults.

Brandy Barr

WHY WOULD YOU NOT LET KIDS BE KIDS AS LONG AS POSSIBLE?!

No it's distracting.

There are plenty of opportunities for students to dress up in a costume for the holiday, but school is not a place to celebrate Halloween.
