October 31st will be Halloween Spirit Day at Blanchard! Students and staff are welcome to come to school in costume! Some students choose not to participate, and that's OK too! If you are planning to wear a costume on the 31st, please make a school appropriate choice and keep the following in mind:

- No masks.

- No weapons, sharp objects, chains, or anything that could be perceived as a weapon, damage property, or cause injury.

- No costumes that could be offensive or pose a risk to safety.

- Hats are permitted if part of a costume and not covering the face.

If you have any questions, please stop in the office to see Mr. Hislop or Mrs. Demins.

Hard to believe but snow is right around the corner and that means skiing!.  Any student who is interested in learning about one of Blanchard's most popular clubs should attend our ski club information meeting on Tuesday, 10/24 in the cafeteria during advisory after morning announcements. We will go over logistics and answer any questions you might have. See you then!
