3:00 PM – 5:00 PM

Movement Room (by the Reed Gym) on the Lincoln Campus

Admission FREE 

All students, families, and community members are warmly invited to join us for a vibrant Día de Los Muertos celebration! Come together to honor loved ones, enjoy traditional treats -

Delicious Churros & Warm Hot Chocolate - and experience the rich cultural heritage of this joyful holiday.

The ofrenda (altar) is a sacred traditional space created to honor and remember those who have passed before us. We invite our school community to contribute to this special display.

Students are encouraged to turn in a labeled picture of a loved one who has passed (pets included) to Señora Sykes by Friday, October 30, 2026, if they wish it to be included in the Ofrenda.

Please make sure the back of each photo is clearly labeled with the student's name and the name of the loved one so that all pictures can be safely preserved and returned following the event.

We look forward to sharing this memorable and meaningful afternoon with you!

The store is open October 21st through November 9th.
