🏷️ MABELS LABELS

If you’re looking for a long-term way to label your child’s possessions, Mabels Labels work wonderfully! If interested, head to https://mabelslabels.com/fundraising/support and type in “Angell.”

🔍 LOST & FOUND

I was hopeful more sweatshirts would have been claimed at the Movie Night, as we have over 125 articles of clothing in the Lost & Found. Over the next few weeks, I’ll remind students during our schoolwide video announcements on Monday. Parents/caregivers, you have the best eyes for the clothes you purchased so come take a peek! 

📸 SCHOOL PICTURE RETAKES
Picture retakes are Wednesday, November 5th in the morning.  If your child needs to have their picture retaken, they need to return the last photo packet.  If you missed picture day completely, you can pre-order photos at schoolpictures.com using code: AA0407Fall25-26. Be sure to tell your child if you’d like picture retakes.

🍴BAGGED LUNCH OPTION THIS FRIDAY

Kids will not eat lunch at Angell on Friday, October 31st (Halloween) because we dismiss at 11:50AM.The cafeteria will prepare grab & go/bagged lunches for families who complete this form. This form must be completed by midnight tonight, if you want the bagged lunch.  

👖STILL IN NEED OF SMALL PANTS & UNDERWEAR

If you have old pants to donate - size 5-6, XS, or S, our office will happily put them to use.  On a daily basis we help students with accidents and many items aren’t returned to us. 

REPEATS & REMINDERS

🎃HALLOWEEN COSTUMES & PARADE: Halloween is a half day this year, so we dismiss at 11:50AM. We will host a Halloween parade around 9:05 AM, so kids should come to school dressed in their costumes. 

Parade: Families are welcome to view the Halloween parade outside on our school grounds. All classes parade inside the building, then the parade exits the front doors of school and loops back into the building on the lower playground. Note: this parade takes about 25 minutes because kids traverse through the entire building, allowing classmates to see one another. 

Guidelines for costumes:

• Costumes​ ​should not include scary​ masks or full face paint. Staff must be able to easily identify all students, and costumes should be appropriate for a family parade.

• Fake weapons and blood are not permitted. 

• Costumes that could be offensive or perpetuate a stereotype of someone’s culture, gender, etc. are not permitted.

• Kids should bring a change of clothes if their costume is not appropriate for playing at recess and/or running during P.E. 

• Be sure your child is capable of changing out of their costume without adult assistance.
