       This year (as every one before) the Cunniff School is having a Halloween party.

     The party will be Friday, Oct. 28, from 6-8 p.m. in the Cunniff cafetorium.

    “I love it,” said Ms. Rono. “It’s cool scary fun. It’s a safe way to have fun.”

    The Halloween party is run by the Cunniff PTO. Admission is free, and the PTO asks people to bring a canned good to donate for the Watertown food pantry.

The annual Cunniff Halloween party will be held Friday, Oct. 28, 2016, from 6-8 p.m.

    Almost every teacher thinks it’s a great way of having fun in school.

    Ms. Kale said it was a good idea.

    “It sounds like some spooky fun,” she said.

    Ms. Hager said, “Love it! Love the idea. I’m very excited. It’s a safe way to have fun.”

    Ms. Tanguay said, “I’ve never been, but I heard great things about it.”

    According to Lee Haley of the Cunniff PTO, there is going to be new games (which are a surprise) and some old ones. The scene for the haunted house will be a graveyard.

    There is a no-weapons rule. (No plastic weapons either.)

    There is also going to be a cakewalk, which is when you walk around a stage and if you land on a certain spot you get a cake or a box of cupcakes. The cake walk and haunted house will be $1 each. Pizza, drinks, and snacks will also be $1 each.

    All the money is going to the PTO.

    We hope people enjoy!
