I think kids should be allowed to dress up for Halloween at school.  I am not a big fan of the holiday but I am a big fan of kids getting to enjoy childhood and being able to have positive memories of school. It seems like there can sometimes be too much focus on the academic side of school these days and too many people seem to forget that school is not just about learning to read, write, and perform calculations- it's also about shaping young people's lives and helping them to develop their characters. When you take time to remember this broader purpose of education it's easy to see how having a day off from the normal school routine in order to celebrate a holiday can offer a valuable contribution to a child's educational experience.

And there is still some discrepancy between parents and the administration as to why the ban has been implemented this fall.
