OTS Community Celebrates Annual Halloween Parade

OTS Community Celebrates Annual Halloween Parade

Old Trail School students, teachers and families came together on Friday morning for the annual OTS Halloween Parade, a beloved tradition that celebrates the joy and imagination of our Old Trail community.

From the moment our students in Junior Kindergarten to Grade 5 began marching across campus, their excitement and pride were unmistakable. The children showcased their creativity with a dazzling array of costumes—from classic characters and clever group themes to homemade masterpieces that reflected their imaginations.

Teachers also joined in the fun, donning costumes of their own, while families lined the parade route to cheer and snap photos. As the parade wound its way through campus, the smiles told the story best: this is a celebration where every student feels seen, supported and part of something bigger.

We’re grateful to everyone who helped make this morning so memorable—our faculty and staff for their creativity, our parents for their enthusiastic support, and our students for bringing their energy and imagination to life.
