Halloween

Halloween
Posted on 11/02/2014
It is nice when kids can be kids. Halloween went off without a hitch at Highland School. Costumes were imaginative and funny. I believe all students and teachers had a great time, and yes the Principal did as well. Yes it can be a chaotic day with costumes, and the excitement of trick or treating and 8th period parties, but I found it rejuvenating. So much of what Highland School does relies on an ultra focus on the education of children, pushing them  to succeed in the classroom, pushing them to complete their HW, monitoring behaviors consistently to make sure they are doing right by each other, and Halloween allows us to take a step back and remember what it is like to be young. It was a lot of fun to see all the students' personalities coming out in the costumes they chose and the playfulness coming out in the parities 8th period. Thank-you to all those who brought in food and helped out with the parties. It was a success. Now back to normalcy, but November is a difficult month educationally. Teachers convention, Parent Teacher conferences, and Thanksgiving break up the routine a bit. Let's do the best we can to try and keep the students focused.
