Hornsby Middle School 8th Grade Dance
Dear Parents,
On the evening of Friday, May 15, from 7:00-10:00pm, we will have our annual end of the year 8th grade “Cruise Theme” dance here at Lois Hornsby Middle School. Tickets are now on sale for $10 per student and can be purchased through the student’s homeroom teacher.
The 8th grade dance committee is hard at work, and we need your help to make sure the ship will be ready to pull up anchor on May 15. We could use plenty of help decorating after school the evening before the dance on Thursday, May 14. We will also need help the afternoon of the dance on Friday, May 15 beginning at about 1:00 PM.
Below are a few ways you can help ensure we are ready to set sail:
E-mail Erin Schlicher at [email protected] , or Jeannine Colarossi at [email protected] and let us know how you can help make this event special for your Hornsby student! If you drop off donations at HMS please clearly mark it for “PTSA 8th grade dance”.
Dance Attire
As you begin shopping for a dress shirt for your son, or that “perfect dress” for your daughter, please keep in mind that this is a middle school dance. Please err on the side of modesty when selecting your child’s attire. We would like to avoid the awkward situation of asking a child to change into something more appropriate before entering the event. While the typical-day dress code is relaxed for this event, it remains a workable guideline in terms of length, exposure, etc.
Thanks,
Mike Contakes
