From The Dean's Office
Just a couple of friendly reminders from the Deans: Earbuds and headphones are not permitted on campus. Please leave your earbuds and headphones at home or they will be confiscated. Also, remember to follow the dress code. Short shirts that show your bare midriff or holey jeans that violate the fingertip rule are not allowed. Not sure what the fingertip rule is? Stand up and extend your arms. If there is skin showing above your fingertips, what you are wearing (i.e. the skirt, shorts, dress, or holey jeans) is not appropriate. Don't be caught in a dress code sweep!
Addams Family Musical
Carson High School proudly presents The Addams Family musical. Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s ‘normal’ boyfriend and his parents.
