Halloween ghosts

Happy late Halloween. Our school had its annual halloween contest where most students dressed up as spooky, funny, most original, members of ghosts. The highschool students had the king and queen halloween skit and the two grades from elementary made up halloween songs that were sung very loudly. It was a fun afternoon. Our local corporation cable company aired it on the village tv channel so most everyone who was not able to come to the school got to watch it also. Speaking of that. every friday afternoon our local student news team has a 15 minute show on that channel also and they usually have news of the school activities. Our NYO team of at least 16 students are competing at Akula. We had a parent teacher conference this past week and we had a good turn out. Our local traditional council tries to suspend local activities so that parents can go to the parent teacher conferences. I believe that shows the village supports students education. Its been a fun week.

I love to hear about community-wide Halloween celebrations. When I was growing up in South Carolina, Halloween was a huge community affair. We planned our costumes for weeks. It's not like that anymore, at least in Fairbanks.

I'm glad to hear the community is doing so much to support the schools!

so nice that your school uses their media equipment to share to the community. We have a school radio station, but I don't think that students use it very often, I will suggest that they start. Thanks for the idea!
