The Valley Stream UFSD Thirteen celebrated the spirit of the season with its annual Trunk or Treat and Pumpkin Patch events, festive gatherings that brought together families, students, and staff across the district. These beloved traditions, held simultaneously and made possible by the dedicated efforts of the PTA, took place recently drawing a large turnout from the community.
During Trunk or Treat, parents and students adorned their vehicles with creative Halloween decorations, transforming the parking lot into a vibrant trick-or-treating hub. Children excitedly visited each trunk, collecting candy and goodies while showcasing their costumes, ranging from classic ghouls to imaginative modern characters.
The pumpkin patch event was also a success, with children taking pumpkins home to carve Jack-o’-lanterns. Festive activities included face painting, games, and a photo booth, ensuring that everyone left with smiles and lasting memories.
This year’s Trunk or Treat and Pumpkin Patch events highlighted the creativity of participants and reinforced the strong sense of community within Valley Stream UFSD Thirteen. Families enjoyed connecting and strengthening bonds that extend beyond the school walls.
Valley Stream UFSD Thirteen would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the PTA, parents, staff, and all volunteers who contributed their time and resources to make this event a resounding success. We look forward to continuing this wonderful tradition in the years to come!
