Friendship Dance Dress Code Guidelines:
The Friendship Dance is a Semi-formal event. Please help your student keep the following dress code guidelines in mind while preparing for the dance.
- Semi-formal means no hats or t-shirts may be worn.
- No jeans of any color may be worn.
- We understand that some dresses may be strapless or spaghetti-strapped; this is fine but please keep in mind this is a school activity and we want everyone to dress appropriately. Be mindful of low cut dresses in the back or the front.
- Dress slacks (pants must be worn in an appropriate manner), collared dress shirt or sweater, necktie (traditional or bow), dress shoes or boots are encouraged. A suit or sport coat is neither required nor encouraged.
Please keep these requirements in mind when dressing for the activity. We hope everyone has a fun/safe evening. Thank you for your help!
