[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because parents have demanded it. The entire day is not devoted to Halloween. It is still an instructional day, and the county would rather have students opt out and attend an alternate event for the hour that the Halloween party is occurring than stay home all day and miss instruction like the previous poster gave as an example.[/quote] Exactly this. They want to prevent parents from keeping kids home for the day when the Halloween festivities typically only last about an hour. Our school plans alternate activities in the gym and at least a few kids from each class participate.[/quote]
