Should be consistent with our GUSD nondiscrimination policy. This includes costumes of religious or political leaders, costumes or decorations that might be perceived as offensive, considered cultural appropriation, poke fun at others, or costumes that generally breach good taste.
Ask yourself, “Might I offend someone with a costume or decoration?” If there is any doubt, choose something else.
Do not bring replicas of weapons or wear masks that cover the face.
Homecoming - Thanks! ASB would like to give one last Shout Out of Appreciation to all the staff and Falcon Families who donated desserts and snacks, and especially those who gave their time so generously to chaperone and provide the other important services for the 1000+ students who enjoyed the Homecoming Dance. What a fun night! Go Falcons!!
