To ensure the success of the dance and justify the time, effort, and money expended for each dance, those participating are expected to attend for at least two hours. No one will be allowed to enter the dance any later than 30 minutes after the dance has begun nor leave any earlier than 30 minutes before the dance ends.
Unusual circumstances that would necessitate an exception in the arrival or departure time must be cleared through the principal.
Once a student leaves the school premises, the school is no longer responsible for his/her safety or whereabouts. Once someone leaves the dance, he/she may not return.
All students will sign in upon arrival and will sign out if leaving prior to the end of the dance.
No dance will last beyond 1:00 a.m.
Only SCC students and their dates may attend as long as they both enter at the same time.
Students who bring an out of school guest must pick up a “Dance Permission Form” from the administration and have this completed and turned in by the due date stated on the form. Failure to meet the deadline will neglect your privilege of bringing an out of school guest.
In particular, girls’ apparel at dances should reflect modestly. Any outfit that is considered lacking in modesty will result in that being asked to leave the dance.
Conduct Before and During the Dance
The possession and/or use of alcoholic beverages or illicit drugs is strictly forbidden. Anyone suspected of violating this rule will be expelled from the dance. The students involved will be subject to expulsion. If not an SCC student, they will be excluded from future functions. Parents will be notified.
Smoking is a violation of the city fire code for gymnasiums and cafeteria and, hence, is not permitted in the gym cafeteria.
Students are to uphold Christian conduct in the way that they dance. Any vulgar or elicit dance styles are not acceptable. We must not forget our call to honor each individual with respect in the way that we celebrate during dances.
Pre/Post activities: We realize that activities before and after dances are a normal part of everyday life; however, we do ask that the students and parents be mindful of the following guidelines:
1. Expenses should be kept to a minimum.
2. Activities involving the serving of alcoholic beverages to minors is a serious violation of civil and school rules.
3. Dance admission times must be observed.
4. Guidelines for guests must be adhered to.
