Friday, May 6

Be Respectful, Be Excellent, Be Accepting, Be a Leader

This is Falcon Flash Day.

ALL GRADES: After school library will be open on Monday, May 16 and Tuesday, May 17, but there will be NO LATE BUS.  After school library closes on Wednesday, May 18.

Don’t forget that all library books are due back TODAY!  The language arts classes without any overdue books or fines will win a basket of candy!

As we head into the spring, we often see a spike in dress code violations.  Sometimes you forget you have grown over the past 7 months and the shorts which fit at the beginning of the year are too small and are often times no longer appropriate for school. Euclid’s dress code is designed to maximize personal expression and style, while maintaining a positive atmosphere that allows everyone to feel comfortable and do their best learning. If you do not come to school dressed appropriately you will be asked to change clothes or, if that is not possible, your parents will be called to bring different clothes.

As a reminder, here are key points to remember regarding our dress code.  Please see the student handbook for a full description of Euclid’s dress code.

a.      Unacceptable dress includes: spaghetti straps, halter-tops, pajamas, slippers.

b.      Shorts or skirts must be fingertip length.

c.      Students may not sag their pants.

d.      Undergarments must be covered.

e.      No low-cut shirts.

f.       T-shirt straps must be at least 2” wide.

g.      Appropriate footwear is required at all times.
