Halloween costumes on Friday, October 31, 2025. We ask that your costumes follow the
guidelines below. If your costume does not meet these guidelines, then you will be asked to
change. Let’s continue to make this a fun tradition at Valley Springs.
Halloween Costume Guidelines for Valley Springs School:
1. All costumes must follow dress code and be appropriately themed for school.
2. No weapons of any kind.
3. No fake blood, guts, or body parts.
4. No inflatable costumes.
5. No face masks or full face paint. We must be able to recognize students’ faces for safety
reasons.
6. Students must come to school in costume. We will not use educational time to get in
costume. Please do not send face paint, glitter, etc. to school.

To ensure students receive the best payment options available, please encourage them to place their graduation orders online by midnight on Wednesday, October 29th. Orders can be submitted online through www.jostens.com
Once the transition to the Spring Program is completed, orders will still be accepted; however, full payment will be required at the time of purchase. There also may be some items that will no longer be available for purchase, such as the tankard if available for your school. This transition will not change the price of the cap and gown unit at this time.
