Fall and Winter parties

So - the vibe I'm getting at school is that two of the main parties this year should be referred to as:

Fall Party (or harvest party?)  -- no using "Halloween"

Winter Party - not "Holiday" party


I don't make the rules.......just communicating what I'm hearing.  The tone is a bit different than last year and we need to be respectful of what the administration would prefer us to call certain things.

Is everyone else getting this message too?  Nothing formal has come out, yet.
