This Halloween trend stretches beyond just costumes; it brings teams together and fosters camaraderie while serving academic purposes. Talk about making learning exciting!

Fun Fact #1: The presidents of the U.S. even joined in on the Halloween celebrations! In 2009, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama famously handed out candy to trick-or-treaters on the White House lawn, showing everybody that Halloween spirit is real no matter the year!

Fun Fact #2: The tradition of dressing in costumes on Halloween stems from ancient Celtic festivals, where the Celts would wear disguises to ward off ghosts. Today, that spirit endures, but thankfully, it’s less about chilling with spirits and more about chilling with friends in fun outfits!
