Entertaining Costumes On Display As Farrell Celebrates Halloween

Monsignor Farrell’s annual senior Halloween costume contest was a hit once again! Seniors showed off their creativity this year with clever, creepy, and hilarious costumes, turning Farrell into a festive showcase of Halloween spirit. 

Teachers had the job of voting for the top three student(s) and their costumes, and at the end of the school day, the winners were announced: 

The first place prize was awarded to Peter Buttitta's creative "porta potty" costume.

The second place prize went to Richard Purpura for his detailed impersonation of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan.

Third place went to a group of seniors impersonating the Smurfs - Christian Renna, John Guastella, Matthew Gibb, Christian Papandrea, Derek Spitalieri, Carmine Scotto, and Justin Vinciguerra.

It’s safe to say that Farrell’s seniors know how to celebrate in style. 

Check out some of the great costumes from this year in the photos below!
