Redlands High School
Dance Contract 2019-2020
In order to promote a healthy, safe, enjoyable evening for all students, the following procedures will be enforced at all Redlands High
School dances. In order to attend an RHS dance, students and parents must agree to these policies and RHS encourages families to
copy this document for future reference. A signed Dance Contract must be submitted before tickets can be purchased.
This is a dance contract for students who are currently attending Redlands High School. This contract is intended to cover all RHS
sponsored school dances including, but not limited to Mahalo, Homecoming, Winter Dance, Prom, and Senior Event. This request
will only need to be submitted once each school year; however, it must be filled out completely.
Please read the following dance policies thoroughly. Failure to adhere to this agreement may result in removal from the dance. No
refunds will be given if a student is directed to leave before the end of the dance. RHS is not responsible for any costs incurred in
preparation for the dance (dresses, tuxedos, etc.).
Incomplete forms suspected of being forged will NOT be accepted. In the event forged contracts are accepted,
all policies are still applicable.
PLEASE PRINT CLEARLY

I understand that these dances are school-related events, and all school rules apply. I agree to abide by the dance policies set
forth in this contract including the school dress code and dance rules for any and all dances including, but not limited to
Mahalo, Homecoming, Winter Dance, Prom, and Senior Event for the 2019-2020 school year.
1. Attendance Policy: Attendance will be checked prior to students purchasing tickets. If a student is suspended, for whatever
reason, within 45-school days of an RHS dance, they will be excluded from attending that dance. In addition, 45 period
absences from the start of the semester up until the date of the dance will lead a student to be excluded from attending any
dance. (Attendance codes A, B, C, D, & S) This policy will remain in effect until the day of the dance. In this situation, the
student will be excluded from the dance and they will receive a reimbursement for the cost of their ticket. RHS is not
responsible for any costs incurred in preparation for the dance (dresses, tuxedos, limousines, etc.).
2. Tardy Policy: Students who have been placed on the “No-Go” list with 20 or more Tardy (T) marks from the start of the
semester up until ONE WEEK before the date of the dance will be excluded from attending any dance. See full tardy policy
for detailed information regarding the “No-Go” list.
3. Tickets are nontransferable and nonrefundable. This means the person buying the ticket is the person who attends the
dance and brings photo ID. No refunds will be given if a student decides not to attend the dance after the ticket is purchased
OR is directed to leave before the end of the dance. RHS is not responsible for any costs incurred in preparation for the
dance (dresses, tuxedos, limousines, etc.).
4. Guest Passes: Completed Guest Pass requests must be turned in to the N.C. Office for approval prior to purchasing tickets
for ANY dance. Once the Guest Pass is approved, a student must bring it with him/her to the Finance Office, in order to buy
tickets – tickets for the RHS student and his or her guest MUST be purchased together. Listen to the bulletin or go to the
Activities Office for specific deadlines for each dance.
5. Student Pick-up: Any student picked up 45 minutes or more after the end of the dance will be excluded from the next 2
dances. This will apply to the student and not the calendar year, therefore late pick-up runs the risk of the student not being
permitted to purchase dance tickets into the following school year.
6. To enter the dance, each person MUST present an ID along with the ticket, which indicates his or her name. All RHS
students must present his/her RHS ID card along with the ticket. If the guest (see guest pass information) is not an RHS
student, he/she must present a Photo ID. RHS students and their guests must enter the dance at the same time.
7. School District Policy mandates that students arriving at school functions, such as the dance, under the influence of a
controlled substance may not be admitted. Such students will be isolated immediately until custody can be arranged with the
individual’s parents or local authorities. A 5-day suspension will result from students violating this policy.
