Hello, Sierra Families!

I know our sharks are very excited for the Sierra PTC's Fall Carnival next Friday, October 28th! Thank you to our amazing PTC and all parent volunteers and donors in all the planning and preparation to make the event a success!

Please be aware of these two important items to ensure safety for everyone:

1. Child supervision is not provided at the carnival. This is not a "drop-off" event. Please plan to attend the carnival with your child or make sure to send them with a trusted adult.

2. Parking in parking spaces or parallel park on the street only. No parking in the fire lanes.

3. Costume rules:

• Masks fully covering the face may not be worn to the Fall Carnival. Facial recognition is extremely important in a crowded setting.

• Positive costumes are encouraged. Students can not wear costumes that are violent or gruesome (containing fake blood, gore, etc). This is not appropriate for the school environment and may frighten our smallest and youngest Sharks.

• Fake weapons such as guns, swords, or daggers may not be brought to school under any circumstances. If students have inappropriate costumes or props, they will be confiscated and will need to be picked up by a parent from school administration.

Thank you for your support of a safe environment for all of your wonderful children!

Amy Westberg, Principal
