*Please remember that all costuming should be respectful. Student faces must be visible at all times, so no masks or face coverings are permitted. Additionally, costumes should not interfere with the learning environment. For example, it can be difficult to fit in a seat with a tail or a large set of wings and impossible to see the board over someone else's inflatable.
