A Halloween spent at Montrose is a Halloween to remember. This year, we spent Halloween dressing up in silly costumes, walking through the new haunted hallway, participating in the annual costume contest, and playing festive games. The day started off with students walking into school with a variety of interesting costumes. I saw students dressed as TV characters, such as the cast of Bluey and Trolls. I saw firefighters, pirates, “Men in Black,” deer, and more. The variety of costumes was extremely surprising this year!
This year’s haunted hallway was especially frightening and thrilling. If you got the chance to walk through the haunted hallway, you would have experienced a real scare. The theme of the hallway this year was a haunted wedding. The event started off with a student dressed in a long white gown with a flashlight and a grave look on her face. Then, as you continued to walk down the path that seemed to last forever, there was a multitude of students jumping out to scream. After the screaming students appeared, we approached what looked like dead people laying on the ground. They were constantly looking for their next opportunity to jump out and scare us. While this event was frightening, it was very exciting and enjoyable. It wouldn’t be a Montrose Halloween without the haunted hallway. Great job to this year’s tenth grade!
A new Halloween event was also introduced to the school this year. “Guess That Teacher” was such a fun event that everyone got to participate in and was a challenging game for many! To win the challenge, each student had to guess which teacher was on a poster by only looking at their eyes. The rest of the page was a ghost body. This made the challenge extremely difficult. This station was also a team event because the red or white team that gets the most answers correct wins red and white points! The red team won this year!!!
Every year, Halloween at Montrose is an extra special nod to all the festive activities and traditions that we have. No matter if it is your first or last Halloween at Montrose, I guarantee that it will be a day filled with laughter and candy. This year’s Halloween was a blast and I can’t wait to experience it again next year!
