Trunk-or-Treat at Swansea Elementary

We will be celebrating Halloween by hosting a Trunk-or-Treat event at our school on October 31 beginning at 5 p.m. What is Trunk-or-Treat? This event is a safe way for students to participate in trick-or-treating. Join us at this fun Halloween celebration! Students are encouraged to wear costumes at this event, but please remember, costumes will not be allowed during the regular school day. To make Trunk-or-Treat as sweet as possible, we’re looking for candy donations. Interested in contributing? Please bring a bag of candy to the Main Office. Thank you!

Reminder: School Hours

Guardians, please do not drop your student(s) off prior to 7:55 a.m. As a reminder, breakfast is served in the cafeteria at 7:55 a.m., and school begins at 8:15 a.m. If students are dropped off before 7:55 a.m., we cannot guarantee that they are being supervised by school staff.
