Millennials are not running the schools yet; Baby Boomers and Gen X are the ones ultimately making the decisions. Maybe a few of the oldest Millennials who are now in their 40's are in positions of power, but that is a small slice.
As someone running a school, I think my main concern would actually be students dressing in costumes which would be inappropriate and/or offensive. Maybe this is a way to preempt that. Either that or as a measure to not exclude poor children whose families cannot afford to spend on a costume. SOMA is a mixed district in terms of socioeconomic status. But the principle of banning costumes altogether is stupid. Just do it the way it was always done; allow the kids to dress up, but the offenders will be disciplined.
People who insist Halloween endorses Satanism or whatnot are complete nutjobs.
