Attention KCTC students: This is just a reminder there is no KCTC this Friday, October 30
With Halloween coming up this weekend, we want to remind everyone that Halloween costumes will not be permitted at Kent City High School this Friday. While we have allowed costumes in previous years, we're taking a different approach this year.
That doesn't mean you can't show a little Halloween spirit! Here's a quick guide to what's okay and what's not:
Wearing a shirt with a pumpkin on it? Absolutely!
Dressing up as an actual pumpkin? Not so much.
Wearing a Halloween-themed sweatshirt? Go for it!
Showing up dressed as a ghost? Save it for Saturday.
Wearing a shirt with a witch on it? No problem!
Showing up with a witch hat, cape, and broomstick? That's a costume.
Wearing your favorite team's jersey? Of course!
Showing up in full football pads and a helmet? Not happening.
The bottom line is simple: Halloween-themed clothing is fine. Halloween costumes are not. This includes masks, face paint, costume accessories, and outfits intended to make you look like a character or someone else.
We appreciate everyone's cooperation in keeping Friday a normal school day. Save the costumes for Halloween on Saturday, and have a great week, Eagles!
