Dance 101
Please share the following with your advisory on Tuesday morning.
When: Friday January 24th
Time: 6:30- 9:00
- Arrive at 6:30 pm, doors will open at exactly 6:30, doors will be open from 6:30-7 pm for arrival.
- Pick up is at 9:00 pm, no later, no earlier by the gym doors. Students will be released from the gym at 9:00 pm.
Tickets- $5:
- This helps to cover the cost of the DJ and decorations.
- Tickets are sold next week every day before school in the candy corner. It is a good idea to buy tickets ahead of time.
- You should bring your ticket to the dance!
- Tickets will be sold at the door as well.
Dance:
- The DJ plays music the entire dance!
- The gym is decorated with a winter theme.
- Concessions are sold- candy, water, and soda. Everything is $1.
Attire:
- Many students choose to dress up. We call it “school appropriate fancy casual”. The gym does get warm with so many students. Wear comfortable attire shoes for dancing.
- Jackets, purses, etc., should be kept to a minimum. Items will be stored in the guidance office during the dance.
Students must be in school the day of the dance. Students not meeting behavioral expectations may be added to a "No Dance List". If this step is taken, the student and parent will be notified immediately. Additionally, if students are not meeting our behavioral expectations at the dance, we will notify their parents and the students will need to be picked up immediately.
Officer Krock, both principals, many teachers, and parents will be there supervising.
