Trick-or-Treat

The annual ECEC/CEF Halloween Walk will take place on Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Activities will happen rain or shine so please dress your children for the weather. The schedule for the classrooms is as follows: 9:40 a.m. Pre-K/K (Mrs. McAuliffe & Ms. Finkelstein's classes) 10:00 a.m. Preschool (Mrs. Lenihan, Ms. Kurtjian & Ms. Szymaszek's classes) 10:30 a.m. Toddler (Mrs. Stone/Mrs. Paris & Mrs. Daigneau/Ms. Camardese's classes) If your child is not scheduled on Wednesday, they can come if accompanied by an adult. Children not scheduled on Wednesday should arrive at the time indicated above for their classroom's trick or treating so we can avoid overcrowding that we've had in the past. Come wind through the Center's trick or treat stations, search for a "needle in a haystack", decorate a pumpkin and enjoy cider and donuts.
