Guidelines for all LLHS Dances

BEHAVIORAL GUIDELINES for the dance

  • Hands are above the waist, but do not touch an individual in a sexual way (or to give the impression that you’re doing that).
  • No “dirty dancing,” front-to-back dancing, or “pelvic grinding."
  • No running into people on the dance floor or putting people on your shoulders.
There are copies of these guidelines in the office.  If a student is bringing someone from off-campus, the guest should see these guidelines.

 

DRESS CODE 
A dress code for each dance is published in advance of the dance. If the dance is one where girls want to wear dresses, remember to always apply these rules when shopping for that perfect dress:

"Prom-dress" Guidelines (apply to any dance)
  • Attire should not show cleavage or abdomens.
  • See-through dresses are not allowed.  
  • No cut-outs are allowed on the sides or front panels of dresses.  
  • Backless dresses should be waist-line height or higher with appropriate coverage on the sides.
