York students and faculty show their Halloween spirit

This Halloween was an exciting one, with faculty and students alike coming to school dressed in their best Halloween costumes to make this Monday special.

Student Council is once again hosted its Halloween costume contest, but this year’s contest was open to both staff and students. Faculty and students were encouraged to enter this “team” costume contest with a group of their friends or co-workers all dressed in a similar theme.

This year, the student contest winners were Peter and Grant Hartlage with their Chinese Warrior costumes, while the Science department won the faculty contest as “Heavy Metals.”
