Conduct at Middle School Dances
In order to promote a healthy, safe, enjoyable event for all students, the following procedures are effective for all dances:
- Students are allowed to bring one guest from another school to the Middle School dance, but must obtain a guest pass. All guests are expected to abide by St. Brendan School expectations regarding dress, grooming, and behavior
- For safety purposes, students will not be allowed to loiter in the parking lot, but must enter the event upon arrival at the event location. Once a student leaves a dance, they will not be allowed to re-enter without permission and they may not loiter on the event grounds, including the parking lot
- School dances are school-sponsored activities; therefore, all St. Brendan School regulations are applicable at these functions
- Tobacco/vaping, drug, and alcohol is not allowed at all school dances.
Dress Code for School Dances
- Large purses and backpacks will not be permitted and may be inspected at the door
- Students must not wear apparel that reveals visible cleavage or undergarments
- Students must not wear backless apparel. Backless is defined as apparel that shows skin or is sheer below the bra area
- Students must not wear t-shirts with offensive logos/words or words that are contrary to the Christian Catholic values
Students who are in violation of the Dress Code will not be permitted to enter the dance and their parents will be contacted. Students who after being admitted alter their attire in such a way as to make it violate the specified Dress Code standards will be removed from the dance and their parents will be contacted. No refunds will be issued to students or guests who are denied entry or removed from any dance.
Any students violating any of the above listed conduct or are denied admittance or asked to leave the dance for any reason will not be allowed to attend any of the remaining dances during the academic school year in question.
