---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Friday @ school..."CAMO" is the theme this week! Tigs come to school with hair down flatironed straight, full makeup, wearing school appropriate CAMO of choice. Camo is required and handled on their own but DO NOT crimp/color hair and NO FACE PAINT!!!


Friday afterschool...
Tigs will stay afterschool to dress this week because of quick departure timeline. Pregame meal will be provided for Band/Tigs.


Tigs MUST bring their black leotard, black fringe skirt, jazz shoes, and proper undergarments in a garment bag along with their monogramed guard bag which must contain gloves, poms, makeup & hair stuff for touch ups, black towel/small throw. The garment bag & guard bag must be brought to guard room before school so we can lock it up for the day. Bigs will assist younger girls on Friday afternoon as needed. (If camo is not suitable for good practice during 5th block put some practice clothes in your garment bag as well)


Tigerettes are required to ride the bus to the game. They may be checked off by their PARENT or by another ADULT TIG PARENT designated in writing BEFORE WE LEAVE OG. Phone calls & texts from parents will not be accepted...we must have a written note with parent signature. Tigs riding the bus home are NOT permitted to switch buses...they go to the game and return to the school on the same bus!! They MUST have a ride waiting on them at school when the buses return...we can't go home until they do!


Tigerettes are expected to behave in an appropriate manner at all times. In or out of uniform every choice made has a consequence. Do not jeopardize your reputation, or the reputation of our Guard, by participating in public displays of affection (PDA), ignore and do not respond to ugly talk or gestures. All school, band, guard rules apply at school events/activities. Pay attention, make sure your words and your actions stay positive at all times.


Tigerettes are required to be in the company of at least two other Guard members at all times at all rehearsals & games...both home & away...there is safety in numbers...safety from vultures and also safety from the rumor mill!!!


Students only in the bandroom and school buildings on practice & game days.


Please don’t forget that laps are required when Tigs are late or when they show up unprepared. We thank you in advance for being a responsible member and parent...arriving on time and having all items needed for rehearsal/games/contests/exhibitions. We also appreciate you all “not whining” when lack of preparation or time management sends a girl around the field.


We thank you in advance for your cooperation regarding policy issues and ask that you remember they are not intended to cause student/parent problems, but are put in place to help ensure the safety of participants & smooth operation of our group as a whole.


Please note that the JefCoEd new Code of Conduct book states 4 parent note absences,
ckins, or ckouts per class missed per semester is the max.
