On Oct. 31, over 500 costumed seniors made the half-mile trek from Farmingdale High School to Woodward Parkway Elementary School for the district’s annual Halloween parade. A long-standing tradition in Farmingdale, students from both schools look forward to the celebration every year, for the opportunity to dress in differently themed costumes.
During the event, parents and teachers circled the parade route to watch and wave as the seniors joined the 5th grade band and other costumed creatures from Woodward Elementary for their rendition of Michael Jackson’s hit-song “Thriller.”
After circling the school parking lot multiple times, senior students returned to the High School, while the students of Woodward Parkway Elementary stayed outside to hold their own costume parade.
