Student Dance Information
2012 - 2013

Students must arrive prior to the beginning of the lock-in time. Upon arriving, students may not leave until the end of the dance.

Please note that 8th, 9th, or 10th grade students are not allowed to come to or leave any dance in a limousine or a bus. If anyone attempts to do so, he will not be allowed in the dance; and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken later. This rule applies to all dances.

Appropriate behavior is expected of Jesuit students and their dates. See below for explanation of Dress Code.

Dress Code for Jesuit Dances

 

These are general explanations of dance attire. 

All clothing worn to dances must be in good condition and in good taste.

For semi-formal and formal dances, boys must arrive and leave with coat on. Shirts must be kept tucked in, and ties must be worn throughout the duration of the dance.

Girls’ dresses must be modest and appropriate for the stated dress code of the dance. Boys are responsible for communicating all dress code requirements to their dates.

The Jesuit administration is the final judge of the appropriateness of students’ attire.

Shorts, t-shirts, and tennis shoes in good condition are acceptable.  Collared shirts are suggested for boys.
