It seems that there are a few students who are on the list of ‘not signed up’ students but have actually signed up. Please check the list that your homeroom teacher has and if you are one of these, please contact Ms Emily Johnson by email and let her know which events you have signed up for. She will then sort the problem.

Dress Code
Would you like to model this stylish attire (AKA: Mr. Tyochin’s old, gnarly gym clothes!)?*
If not, please follow this simple Dress Code:
-No visible underwear. It’s gross.
-No cleavage or chest hair. This is even grosser.
-All midriffs should be covered. Belly Dancing is not yet a course choice.
-Closed toed shoes please. Nurse Liliane is busy enough.
-No hats inside. Were you raised in a barn?
*If you violate the dress code, we will help you follow it by asking you to change into these clothes. The wrinkled shirt with the bloodstain to the first customer!
Thanks!
