Spirit Week Dress
Happy Spirit Week!
Mr. Koritkoski and I would like to follow-up regarding the particulars of Spirit Week. We were so impressed with the Powder Puff game and how you all conducted yourself on Sunday afternoon. A lot of fun was had by all and we’d like to continue that positive energy and enthusiasm throughout this week.
As Maddy’s email explained, we have themed days for the remainder of the week and we look forward to having some fun but would like to remind you that the spirit of dress code should be adhered to. Students should be fully clothed, clothing should not be revealing, ripped or torn. Dress should be appropriate so as not to be disruptive to classroom activities or atmosphere.
Please use your best judgement as you plan your attire on these days. As Maddy stated, we have expanded spirit days from one day or Williston wear to three days of different attire. The success of spirit week will be dependent upon your judgement, collective spirit and involvement.
Here is the schedule:
Wednesday: Dress up day (as fancy as you would like to be! Have fun with it)
Thursday: Twin Day (the winner of the online voting)
Friday: Dress down day with Williston apparel, meaning you can be out of dress code from the waist up as long as it is Williston clothing.
Please be respectful, reasonable and appropriate when dressing for theme days to ensure the most positive experience for everyone! (And our ability to continue this tradition in future years!)

Rag Shag Parade Info
Please make a note that this Wednesday, October 24, is the annual Rag Shag Parade in Easthampton. This community event for young children is sponsored by the City of Easthampton, and it is a favorite fall tradition. I wanted to make you are aware of the parade, as it may impact parent pick-up at the school that evening, as well as access to parts of campus.
The parade route is as follows:
At 6:30 p.m., the parade will begin at Maple Street School. It goes down Cottage Street, bears right on to Union Street, goes around the rotary, and then on to Park Street. The parade ends in front of the Reed Campus Center.
The driveway around the quad will not be accessible from 6:30 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. Pick-up alternatives are the Athletic Center or the Middle School, and you should plan accordingly. If there is rain on Wednesday, the parade will be postponed until Thursday, October 25.
Thank you,
