The Zero Tolerance Policy requires proper and appropriate dress and behavior at all times while attending a Hicks Prep Club and Scholarship Program event including transportation to and from the event (such as meetings, field trips, seminars, ceremonies, after school program, etc.) I do here by understand and agree to abide by the following policy. 1. All Students are required to act in an orderly fashion. No running or horseplay will be tolerated, nor will cigarette smoking, alcoholic beverages, or illegal drugs will be allowed at any time. Inappropriate language of any kind, such as swearing, name-calling, talking back to adults, etc., will not be tolerated. 2. During all functions, students will not be allowed to leave the group without appropriate adult supervision and/or permission. 3. CD players, radios, MP3 player and other electronic devices will only be permitted at functions prior to the start or during transportation. Please refrain from use during the event. 4. Cell phones are to be kept on Silent or Vibrate during events. Prep Club members are not to use their phones during any event. The only acceptable use of a cell phone is to contact parents after the event has completed. During special events (dinners, ceremonies, etc.), all participants must adhere to the following dress code: Gentlemen: Conservative shirts (w/tie when requested) and pants required. No tank tops or shorts. Ladies: Modest attire is required. This entails wearing conservative dresses, skirts, slacks, or caprice. Appropriate conservative tops or blouses are required. Shorts and halter tops are not permitted at special events. Please Note: This is the student’s and parent’s only warning. Therefore, if a student displays behavioral problems at any level, the result will be their termination from the Hicks Prep Club and Scholarship Program. All dismissals will occur immediately. Dismissal from the Hicks Prep Club and Scholarship Program will also exclude a student from receiving the Hicks Scholarship. All the rules listed above are subject to revision at any time deemed necessary by the Hicks Prep Club and Scholarship Program Advisory Board, Parent Advisory Council, and/or Staff.*
