Most schools have replaced Halloween costume events

CHAMPAIGN – Skeletons roamed the hallways at Carrie Busey Elementary School on Thursday, as did witches, angels, Supermen, cheerleaders, action heroes, and lots of princesses.

The school held its annual Halloween costume parade Thursday morning, but it's not something you'll see at many elementary schools. Many hold fall festivals in lieu of Halloween celebrations with costumes.
