We are looking for volunteers to join us for some Halloween fun next Friday, October 16th for the dance. We wouldn't be able to do these events without your help so we appreciate you!

It is time for our first dance of the school year on Friday, October 16th. In order to make that happen, we need chaperones! The dance will be from 5pm-7pm, but we will need your help at 445pm to 715pm. If you do not have a background check on file or have not completed the volunteer training, there...

🌈 COLOR RUN IS TOMORROW! 🌈

We are so excited for the 2026 Ballyshannon House Color Run on Wednesday, October 7!

A few reminders for students:
- Students who earned a Color Run T-shirt and/or swag bag will receive them right before the event.
- Please wear clothes, pants/shorts, and shoes you do NOT mind getting dirty. This is definitely not the day for good clothes or new shoes!
- Water will be available throughout the event.

- Rita’s Italian Ice will be there selling ices for $5 — cash or card! 🍧

And most importantly, THANK YOU to our Ballyshannon families for all of your support, donations, and encouragement throughout this fundraiser. We have been amazed by how much our community has shown up for our students and school.

We can’t wait for a colorful, messy, fun day tomorrow! 💙💚💜🧡❤️💛🖤
