Howe Public Schools

Elementary and Middle School - Remember next week is Red Ribbon Week to help promote healthy living and staying drug free. Each day has a theme and a certain type of dress up for that day. We have decided to use next Friday, October 28th as our day that we will allow students to dress up for Halloween/Fall and some classes will be having class parties on that day. We are asking that students not wear costumes to school on October 31st, since we will be doing that on the Friday before.
