All
members are required to
attend all practices and
performances whether
performing or not.
Tutoring sessions, work,
and other
extra-curricular
activities must be
scheduled outside of
dance team practice
(usually Monday and
Thurs until 4:00pm).
Excused absences follow
the students guidelines
for excused school
absences.
Members will be allowed
2 excused absences from
practices for the
semester without
penalty. Excessive
absences, even though
excused may result in
the loss of a position
in a performance. Also
absence from a practice
may result in a lost
position in the
formation.
Absence from a dance
team function due to
detention is considered
unexcused.
Members are expected to
travel to and from dance
team functions with the
team if a bus is
provided. A member may
leave a function only
with her parent/guardian
(or a designated adult)
if a note is received in
advance. Members may not
leave with boyfriends.
Members are expected to
be in attendance for the
entire event except in
the case of an
emergency. We will
announce the departure
time for Thursday night
games.
During a football game,
members must keep lines
straight with bags and
poms lined up as
directed by the
officers.
Students may not talk on
cell phones during the
game until directed to
notify their
transportation of
pick-up times.
Only water may be
consumed in the stands.
During the third quarter
break students may have
clear drinks and
non-messy food such as
popcorn. No nachos or
chili.
Members should make all
arrangements with
parents before the game
or during the third
quarter break. Students
may not have visitors in
the stands during the
game.
