📚🎭 Join us for our annual MLA Book Character Parade on Thursday, October 29th at 9:30 a.m.!

This year, we’re doing something a little different! Our Book Character Parade will move outdoors, giving parents the opportunity to watch and cheer on our students as they parade by in their favorite book character costumes.

No RSVP is required. We are currently finalizing the outdoor parade route and will share those details soon so families know where to gather and view the parade.

🌤️ Please note: The outdoor parade is weather permitting. In the event of inclement weather, the parade will not be rescheduled or moved indoors for parent viewing.

We look forward to celebrating a fun morning of books, characters, and Mustang spirit! 📖💙

📚🎭 ¡Acompáñenos a nuestro Desfile Anual de Personajes de Libros de MLA el jueves 29 de octubre a las 9:30 a. m.!

¡Este año haremos algo un poco diferente! Nuestro Desfile de Personajes de Libros se llevará a cabo al aire libre, brindando a las familias la oportunidad de ver y animar a nuestros estudiantes mientras desfilan con los disfraces de sus personajes favoritos de libros.

No es necesario confirmar su asistencia. Actualmente estamos finalizando la ruta del desfile al aire libre y pronto compartiremos esos detalles para que las familias sepan dónde reunirse y desde dónde podrán ver el desfile.

🌤️ Importante: El desfile al aire libre se realizará si las condiciones del clima lo permiten. En caso de mal tiempo, el desfile no se reprogramará ni se trasladará al interior para que los padres puedan verlo.

¡Esperamos disfrutar juntos de una mañana llena de libros, personajes y espíritu Mustang! 📖💙
