On Halloween, kids and their families are invited to Franklin High School for an event called Safe Halloween which happened from 4-6 PM. They can play a variety of games that the staff and FHS student volunteers have set up in various areas of FHS. This is a fun way for students, family, and staff to celebrate Halloween. Teachers and students at Franklin High School love this risk-free method to socialize and spend time with the volunteers’ siblings and children. The FHS staff believes that this was a fantastic method to entertain kids in a safe environment.

There were a lot of different costumes for children of all ages. One costume that stood out to FHS Senior Noami Herbert was the pizza costume.

Volunteering for Safe Halloween, according to Susan Burd, a staff member at FHS is a fantastic way to give back to the community. According to Mrs. Burd, seeing Alumni with their kids was the highlight of a safe Halloween for her. She thought about all the costumes she saw that night. Some were lovely, while others were amusing.

Overall, safe Halloween was a success. The teachers, students, parents, and kids all enjoyed themselves. Next year, all of the participating students and staff will be back. Safe Halloween is a great experience participants were able to have. A rare opportunity to have, which not everyone can. The children that went had a terrific time thanks to the efforts of the FHS staff and students. The teachers and students were able to enjoy themselves while still preserving a fun and safe environment for the kids and their parents.
