Formal Attire Required

Dear Parent, Student, and Guest:

CCHS strives to provide a positive social atmosphere at dances and other events throughout the
school year. To promote an appropriate environment for students, the school has developed
dance behavior expectations, dress standards, and conduct guidelines. When purchasing dance
tickets, students are agreeing to abide by the behavior expectations, dance dress standards, and
dance conduct guidelines listed below. Please read before purchasing tickets or completing the
Guest Pass Agreement.
Please note that Calvary Chapel High School Administration must approve all
guests.

Dance Behavior Expectations

● No student will be admitted more than 60 minutes after the start of the dance unless
prior arrangements have been made with the ASB Director or CCHS Administration.
Students may not leave the dance any time before 30 minutes prior to the end of the
dance without prior consent arranged by the ASB Director or CCHS Administration.
● All students will be observed for use of illegal or controlled substances prior to the entry
to the dance. Security may conduct pat downs and purse searches. Any student who
refuses to comply will be denied entry and parents will be contacted.
● Any vehicle, including limousines, can be searched at any time. Student drivers and
passengers will be held responsible and will be given consequences for any illegal
substance in the vehicle.
● Any student exhibiting disruptive behavior, suspected influence of illegal or controlled
substances, positive breathalyzer test or failure to adhere to dance guidelines will be
removed from the dance and parents will be called to retrieve him/her. No refunds will
be given.
● Guests must be in high school or must have graduated high school within the last year.
Guest passes must be turned in and approved by the ASB Director prior to the purchase
of tickets for the upcoming dance. All Guest Passes are subject to review by
administration and may be denied. Students may invite a student from another school to
attend CCHS events.

Phone Policies
We desire to conduct school events for the 2022-2023 school year as wisely, safely, and fully as
possible. We trust that these policies will provide a framework for safety for our events:
● Cell phones will be collected at the entrance and safely stored for the duration of the
dance; phone access will be permitted for parent contact at any time throughout the
evening. The HS Office phone will be open and available if you need to reach your
student: 714.662.7485 x. 2444

Dance Dress Standards

While school dress standards apply to all school events, the following guidelines address
expectations specific to school dances. If the student is in violation of dance dress
standards at any time, the student will be immediately required to make necessary
adjustments to their attire or asked to leave the venue. Repeated violations may result in
the loss of the privilege to attend future dances.

see-through cutouts)*
Tuxedos / Suit and tie (bowties or ties and jacket)**

*Dress code specifications: Necklines on dresses may not plunge below the bust line; no

These guidelines apply on and off the dance floor. Sexually suggestive dancing will result in the
consequences listed below. To be explicitly clear, students are expected to adhere to the
following guidelines:

The above-mentioned behaviors and acts will not be tolerated and individuals, couples, or
groups engaging in such acts or movements will be removed from the dance and
parents/guardians will be contacted. School administration reserves the right to make decisions
on suitable dance movements and on student dress based on appropriateness and good taste.

Dance Consequences:
If at any time a student or their guest violates the Dance Behavior Expectations, Dress
Standards, or Conduct Guidelines, they may be removed from the venue and the behavior will be
documented for further discipline. If such actions are carried out, parents/guardians will be
notified and the student will be subject to further consequences. Repeated violations may result
in loss of privilege to attend dances in the future.

Please note that administration reserves the right to remove a student and/or their guest from
the dance without a warning if the violation warrants. NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED
