Dear Families,
Our annual March of Dimes Wonder Walk will be held on Thursday, October 31, 2024 starting at 8:20am. The school’s personalized fundraising link is March for Babies: A Mother of A Movement - Support and Join a team for PS 48 . Raising money for the March of Dimes is strongly encouraged but completely voluntary.
Parents/Guardians are welcome to observe the parade. Classes will enter the schoolyard and parade around the schoolyard several times. Parents/Guardians may enter the schoolyard from the stop and drop gate and stand behind the cones.
In the event of inclement weather, the parade will be moved indoors and parents will not be able to attend.
Main School Yard - Parade Times
8:20am - Pre K, Kindergarten, Grades 1 and 2
8:45am - District 75

Students are permitted to wear costumes and should wear costumes to school, including any make-up and hair accessories. However, students should NOT wear costume masks, big shoes, or any other items that might obstruct their vision or ability to move safely around the school. In addition, please do not send in toy weapons such as swords or play guns as part of your child’s costume. Blow up costumes are also not permitted in school.
CANDY BAGS are not permitted in school. Students will return to their instructional day following the parade.
If your child does not have permission to participate in the Wonder Walk, please write a note to your child’s teacher. We will arrange for an alternate activity during this time.
Thank you for supporting the March of Dimes!
Sincerely,
Allison O’Donnell
Principal
