[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Halloween is in the evening. Yes it’s cultural but has nothing to do with education. Keep them separate. [/quote] That's not the tradition. In our culture we dress up for school, kids and teachers. We have parades and parties. That's American culture.[/quote] I’m 46 - we did not dress up at school and if there was a Halloween party during the day I don’t remember it. The American Halloween experience is trick or treating in the evening. It’s distracting during the school day and so many kids are left out for so many reasons. [/quote] I'm 46 also and went to public school in another state. We definitely dressed up at school. And Halloween parties were fun! Also went trick or treating in the evening. Agree that Halloween is an important part of US culture and should be allowed to be celebrated in schools (our ES has banned it). [/quote]
