Students are not allowed to bring a change of clothes, however they may wear a jacket or sweatshirt on the bus. Shirts must be tucked in with a belt if possible. This is a judged assessment. Students are required to behave accordingly and represent our school well. Should students make poor choices either on the bus, during lunch or at the assessment site, consequences will result upon their return to school. Students will need cash for one meal. A maximum of $10 is suggested.
