It always has been, So why not? Except Christmas this is the day children look forward to the most. They have no idea the meaning of halloween, And it should be kept innocent.
Halloween is a secular holiday. There's no reason it shouldn't be celebrated in schools.
Yes! Children see Halloween as the harmless, fun, and unique holiday it is. It's adults that take away it's innocence and make it something it's not supposed to me.
Why shouldn't schools celebrate Haloween, more correctly Samhain, it is an ancient Celtic festival, much older than Haloween. It celebrates the end of summer, the harvest, and five days later the Celtic new year.
Unfortunately many schools don't. Here in scotland even non faith schools have a big church influence. Halloween is seen as something pagan and evil.
It's a great, interesting and mysterious holiday, so yes, definitely.
It was even celebrated in my school more than 10 years ago, and it was always one of the best parties in the whole year. It's dark and scary set makes it incredibly enjoyable, I guess this is the reason everyone I know is always looking forward to this holiday.
Yes, it is really a great idea. It helps children to express their creativity by presenting unique costumes. Moreover giving a chance to celebrate it at school is much safer than going to any other place.
I agre, it's a wondeful time for children. Not all schools see it that way though. Some feel that the sinister aspect is too serious to be toyed with.
The modern celebration of Halloween is nothing more than a day to pretend to be someting you're not, to try on a different persona, and to relish the joys of childhood. As such, I don't think there is any reason it should not be celebrated in schools. I think it is a shame that so many schools have adopted a no costume policy, as if imagination will somehow be detrimental to learning.

Shouldn't Christmas be celebrated only by Christians?Christmas is celebrated all over the world by everyone from every religion/non-religion, but shouldn't it be a religious event for that religion? Why has it become this way? Commercialisation maybe?

The best parties all year are always on halloween. If it was up to me, we should have this holiday once a quarter. The streets of every big city open up and everyone just lets loose. We can put aside our everyday character and become whoever we feel, will best represent us. ...

I was watching a show about when animals attack the other day n which it depicted wild animals attacking humans and us humans slay these animals for what they do naturally. In addition to that, I think zoos, carnivals and circuses should be banned altogether from being able to hold wild animals for...

Can someone please explain why Halloween is such a popular holiday?I TOTALLY don't understand the fascination with Halloween. I never particularly liked the holiday even as a child, I don't like skeletons or thinking about death. (My husband found coffin candy boxes at the .99 cent store and...
