Students from Shoreline Junior High told the Davis County School District meeting that they collected and donated Halloween costumes to students at Lincoln Elementary to help children who lack costumes.

An unnamed student from Shoreline Junior High said, "If it doesn't fit you anymore, why would you still have it? So why not give it to us so we can give it to kids that it will fit and they will enjoy it." The student urged community members to pass on outgrown costumes to benefit younger students.

Another student described the program's origin: "Earlier this summer, I went to an annual thing our district does. It's called a child shopping spree where we get clothes for kids that are in need. And you get a kid they ask the kid what they want for the first day of school, what they wanna wear. And he said, I don't know, but I want clothes for the costume parade. And I realized there are so many kids that don't have any Halloween costumes." The students said that while families often receive clothing or holiday gifts, Halloween can be overlooked and leave some children feeling left out.

A third unnamed Shoreline student praised the community response: "I was so surprised. We got so many costumes, so many people willing to donate money so so we could go buy costumes. It was just such a welcoming and, like, amazing response." Another student added, "I'm very appreciative of the generosity of the Shoreline community and beyond that donated, these costumes for our students to have so that they can feel like they have, an amazing costume and feel like they are a part of it, like others."

The students did not specify the total number of costumes collected or whether the district will offer ongoing support or expansion of the program. No formal action, vote, or staff direction on the program was recorded in the remarks.

District officials were not quoted in the provided transcript; organizers framed the effort as student-led and focused on community donations and purchased replacements so more students could participate in Halloween activities.
