On Friday, October 30, is Neidig's annual October Parade. All Neidig families are welcome to attend this fun event. The parade takes place on the Neidig playground, beginning at 2:55 PM. During the event, families will report directly to the playground, and may not enter through the building.

Please meet us on the playground / blacktop behind the school. No one will be permitted entry to the school. Parking is limited, please do not park in the Bus Loop or the Car Rider line.

Students will return to class after the parade and may NOT leave with parents. Any changes to dismissal (changes to car rider, etc.) must be made before 1:30pm on October 30th to our dismissal line.

Important guidelines about students' costumes / outfits.

Please review this list carefully so we can avoid any upset feelings on the day of the parade.

Absolutely no blood, gore, or weapons of any kind.
No Masks. Students are not permitted to wear masks or anything covering their face. Students will be walking outside and up and down steps, so this is done as a safety measure. If a mask is a vital part of the student's outfit, they are permitted to carry the mask, but they cannot wear it over their face. Again, no masks.
Students should arrive at school wearing their costume. They will wear this attire for the ENTIRE day. The costume / outfit must be comfortable, and the costume should not prevent students from learning throughout the day.
Family members will not be able to come to school and help their children change or prepare for the parade. As stated in the previous point, students will arrive at school in their attire, and remain in outfit for the day. We know there may be some small exceptions, and students may have a small prop to carry once the parade begins. Again, absolutely no weapons of any kind.
We are allowing inflatables this year, but they cannot cover the student’s face or hands at any time, neither during class or the parade. The inflatable must conform to the above regulations and your student must be able to work normally throughout the school day. If the outfit does impact classroom performance, the student will need to take off the inflatable until the start of the parade.
