    • Provide a form of identification to be left with the dance supervisors.

DRESS CODE FOR DANCES 

Dress at dances should be appropriate. Merrill High School administration/staff will make a final determination if student attire is questionable.  If students are unsure of their attire being compliant with expectations, they should check with school administration well before the night of the dance.

*Administration reserves the right to deny any person(s) admittance to the dance.
