Prom Obligations & Guest Pass Reminder
Attention Seniors,
Just a reminder that all obligations must be cleared by both Seniors and their BASH guest by Friday March 1, 2024 at 3:00pm in order to be eligible to purchase a ticket. Please make sure you check your financial obligations (Infinite Campus, "Fees" Tab) as well as detentions (Mr. Wanish in ISS). Do not assume that you are eligible, as you will not be allowed to purchase a ticket. Obligations, both detentions and financial, roll over from year to year if they are not cleared. This is part of your responsibility as a senior to make sure that you, and your guest, are eligible to attend Prom.
Guest passes are due on March 1, 2024 at 3:00pm. A guest pass must be completed for any BASH student grades 9-11, as well as any non-BASH student. Basically, if a senior is bringing anyone other than another BASH senior, they need a guest pass form completed. Guest pass form attached below and additional copies are available in the main office.
Thank you,
BASH Admin.
