Homecoming Dance Reminders!
The Homecoming Dance (November 23rd 6-9 PM) is an official Taunton High School event and as such all rules and regulations of the school apply, including proper attire. All dance/prom regulations from the Student Handbook (p.23-24) apply. All in attendance are responsible for their behavior in compliance with those rules and the following rules regarding the Homecoming Dance. Non-compliance can result in the student’s removal from the event. No one will be admitted to the dance after 7:30 p.m. After arrival, students who exit the building will not be readmitted unless accompanied by a staff member. Students may leave the dance without guardian permission.
