Kudos to Mrs. Larocque from Greater Yellowstone and Emily Pittis and Kerry Nygren, 6th graders on Cabinet Yaak, who all cut their long hair so that they could donate it to Locks of Love.  Locks of Love is a non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children who are suffering from long-term medical hair loss.  Emily and Kerry invited their hairdresser to school and cut their hair in front of the other students on Cabinet Yaak to try to inspire them and show them how easy it can be to do a kind and selfless act.  Way to go girls!

Dress Code: With the beautiful weather, we’re finding skirts and shorts getting shorter and shorter. This excerpt is from our student agenda: “I understand that I need to follow the school dress code as defined below:

1. SHOES must be worn at all times.
2. COATS/JACKETS will not be worn in class.
3. COVER UP – Bare midriffs, cleavage, tank tops, tube tops are not permitted. (unless appropriate clothing is worn over them)
4. WEAR PROPER FITTING CLOTHING – No visible underwear; No short shorts or short skirts.  (skirts and shorts should be mid-way between the hip and the knee) (If I wear a shorter skirt I will wear opaque leggings underneath.)
5. SEND THE RIGHT MESSAGE – Clothing that displays drugs, alcohol, obscenities, sexual innuendoes or are gang related is not permitted. 
6. HEAD GEAR – Safety and common courtesy dictate that headgear (hats, visors, etc.) will not be worn in the school building.  I understand that I will wear nothing the covers my head (hoods, scarves, bandanas).
7. Students in violation will be required to wear supplied clothing.”

We appreciate your help in making sure skirts and shorts are of the appropriate length. We would love to accept donations of leggings to loan our students with shorts and skirts that are too short. Thank you!
