Get ready for a spooktacular time at our annual Trunk or Treat event! We can’t wait to see your creative decorations, costumes, and Halloween spirit. This event is a fun way for families, staff, and students to celebrate the season together!
What is Trunk or Treat?
For those new to our Plato Academy community, Trunk or Treat is a festive event where we park our cars, decorate the trunks, hatchbacks, or truck beds, and hand out treats to our students. It’s a wonderful way to spread joy and bring Halloween fun to our kids!

Important Details:

Treats: Please bring enough candy for approximately 400 students.
Set Up: The parking lot will open at 9:00 AM for set up. Make sure your car is decorated and ready by 10:45 AM. For safety reasons, we ask that all cars remain parked and stationary once the event begins.
Shade & Comfort: It can get pretty warm out, so feel free to bring a tent for shade, as well as a cooler with cold drinks, snacks, and lunch. The event will run through lunchtime.
Parking: Spaces are first-come, first-serve, and there will be someone directing you to your spot upon arrival.

Don’t forget, we’ll be holding a contest for the Best Decorated Trunk and Best Costume! The winners will receive an amazing gift basket packed with goodies and gift cards. So bring your A-game and make your trunk stand out!
Thank you for helping make this event a success—we’re looking forward to a frightfully good time!
