Paw Print Dress-Down Days for Exams

Parents,

If your child has Paw Prints, they may redeem them in order to dress down for exams.  One Paw Print may be redeemed per article of clothing. For example, if a student has one Paw Print, that student would be able to redeem it for, say, a shirt of his/her choice.  All other garments would have to be TPS uniform attire.  Paw Prints are to be redeemed daily - they do not carry over.

With respect to skirt/short lengths, we will use the same dress code we did for the Biscuits game Wednesday.  I am happy to report that our kids did a FANTASTIC job meeting our dress code requirements for this field trip.  That influenced our decision greatly.

Please let your students know that the faculty voted OVERWHELMINGLY to allow this as a thank you to our students for a fabulous school year.

Coach Rags and I will accept Paw Prints at the beginning of every exam, each day.

I hope you are having a great weekend!
