In about a week, many children will be going out for Hallowe'en. They may also dress up on Oct. 31 at school.

One school board in Ontario has written up a list of guidelines for Hallowe'en costumes. They don't want anyone to be offended by what another child wears as their costume.

Lots of schools ask kids not to wear very scary costumes or ones that include toy weapons. The Conseil scolaire Viamonde (SCV), a French school board in Ontario, has taken things a step further. SCV runs 13 schools in Toronto.

The Viamonde school district asked parents to make sure their child doesn't come to school in a costume that "can make others feel upset, insulted or humiliated.
