“Hollywood” Dance: For students who will attend the “Hollywood” Dance: please note that you MUST bring your ID card with you or you will be sent to the back of the line. Party Pack members just need to show their ID card to get into the dance; they don’t need an actual ticket since their name is on the list. Doors open at 2:30 P.M. Backpacks can be stored in the backpack cages in the PE locker rooms. Students will not be admitted to the dance after 2:45 P.M., so please do NOT leave campus after school if you’re attending the dance. You will want to bring money for the pizza, our “Red, black and white” themed candy bar, and beverages that are available for sale. The dance ends at 4:30pm. Students are NOT allowed to leave early due to safety reasons. Please be sure to follow dress code. This will be a casual dance so students will NOT have to change for this dance. Please see Mrs. Terranova in room 1002 if you have any questions.
