Frequently Asked Questions about the Dance-a-thon

Q: What time does the dance start/end?

A: The dance on February 12^th is from 8:00pm to 8:00 am.  Students who do not wish to stay the entire night can leave at 11:00 pm.  If you stay past 11pm, we would like you to make a commitment to stay the entire night. You must have a permission slip signed by a parent/guardian to stay the entire night.  Students will be “re-admitted” to the dance at 11pm and their names will be checked against a list of submitted permission slips. 

Q: What happens if we decide to leave after 11 pm?

A: We really are encouraging you to make the commitment to stay the night.  If you have to leave after 11:00 and you drove, you will only be allowed to drive yourself home.  You will have to sign out and a call will be made to your parent/guardian to inform them that you have left the dance.  All other students will be allowed to leave only with a parent/guardian who signs them out.

A: Yes, there will be food, and it will be free
