Between ages 9-18, your daughter is in her key bonebuilding years. By age 18, she will have built most of her bone mass.1 That means right now is the best time to give her the support she needs to build strong bones. Less than one in 10 girls gets the calcium she needs each day.2 As girls get older, they tend to get less calcium and physical activity—two important things they need to build strong bones. 2 Support Your Daughter’s Bones Take these steps to build and maintain strong, healthy bones: For You... Be a good role model for your family. Know your own risk factors for osteoporosis. Talk to your doctor about your bone health. For Your Daughter... Make being healthy a part of your family routine. Help her make healthy food choices, including foods high in calcium and vitamin D. Help her get one hour of physical activity daily, including bone-strengthening activities at least three days per week.
Dress Code Attire that is inappropriate for the occasion or deviates from modesty in the judgment of a school administrator will result in being denied admission. This includes guests from other schools. For boys, tuxedos or suits including jackets, ties, socks and dress shoes are required. Young men are to be clean-shaven, meet school guidelines regarding length and style of hair, and are not to wear earrings. No hats or canes allowed in the dance. For girls, dresses and attire that reflect modesty are required. Each year, the most difficult task for administrators is the determination of modesty for girls. Traditional interpretations are often at odds with fashion and cultural trends. Each year, girls are turned away or asked to modify. This is easily avoidable if the following guidelines are observed: o Prom attire should reflect more a formal family occasion (like a wedding) rather than a night on the town or at a dance club. o Dresses that are too revealing, are skin tight or form-fitting, expose midriffs or cleavage, or are too short in length are not appropriate. o Claims that a dress was worn at last year’s Prom or at Homecoming, or comparisons to the dresses of other girls already admitted to Prom will not be entertained or discussed. (Claiming that “others were speeding” rarely works when pulled over by police.) o Modesty is admittedly a subjective interpretation, but one which we have a duty to uphold. Girls should therefore err on the side of modesty and formality and not put school administrators in the difficult position of upholding school standards. Having been specifically forewarned, I expect nothing less than full cooperation from girls and their parents on this issue. Specifics for Dresses: Dress backs may not be lower than the elbow. Dresses may not be any shorter than 3” above the knee (or 3” below the middle finger for taller girls). This includes any slits in the dress. If you purchase a dress with a slit that does not meet those guidelines, you will need to have the slit sewn. Dresses must not be too tight or form-fitting. Dresses may not have cut-outs. Covering a cut-out with fabric will not suffice unless that fabric is permanently sewn into the dress. Dresses must not be low cut in the front. Be especially careful with halter-style dresses or strapless dresses with a sweetheart neckline. Appropriate under garments should be worn based on the style of the dress. Keep in mind that certain bras, padded busts, etc. can change the look of the dress.
We are implementing a Full Uniform Policy as follows: 2011-2012 - K-5th Grades - Full Uniform 2012-2013 6th - 8th Middle School Full Uniform 2013-2014 High School implements Full Uniforms Entire school will be in Full Uniform for the 2013-2014 school year. The adoption of school uniform policies can promote school safety, improve discipline and enhance the learning environment. The potential benefits of school uniforms include: ● instilling a sense of community, pride and ownership in our school ● decreasing dress-code violations and increasing instructional time in the classroom ● instilling students with self-discipline; ● freeing time for administrators to attend to school activities rather than having to deal with dress code violations ● helping parents and students resist peer pressure; ● helping students concentrate on their school work; and ● helping school officials recognize intruders who come to the school. K-12th Grades Dress Code/Uniform School Uniform Guidelines K-12th Grade: 1. Clothes may be purchased from pre-approved retailers* (Dennis Uniform Company) and must be “School-approved uniforms”.

DonateMyDress.org is the first national campaign designed to encourage girls around the country to donate their prom and special occasion dresses to those who cannot afford the costly experience of going to their prom, sweet 16, quinceañera, or formal. The site features a directory of local dress drive organizations across the U.S. that enables girls to easily find where in their local markets they can donate or receive a dress. DonateMyDress.org thrives on the dedication of volunteers who run dress drives nationwide. They work tirelessly to see that every girl in need receives the dress of her dreams, and they empower her to feel more glamorous and confident than ever before. The campaign also grows with the generosity of our corporate sponsors and individual donors, who are stylish women of all ages, as well as celebrities. DonateMyDress.org guides girls to take action, while linking them to the prom beauty and fashion resources on seventeen.com that will get them ready for their big night. DonateMyDress.org originated at Hearst Magazines and lives within the Hearst Teen Network, which is one of the top 10 ranked entertainment news Web sites, and one of the top 5 teen networks, according to ComScore Media Metrix. We are committed to raising awareness of dress donation while helping finance the drives’ operational costs through our Purple Dress Awards, which are grants funded by proceeds from our annual celebrity dress auction and corporate partnerships. If you are interested in joining the cause or starting a dress drive organization of your own, this guidebook will get you started!
Product breadth Higher potential commission payouts Giving your customers choice and the chance to comparison shop There is a fourth reason also: If you live in Colorado, Rhode Island, Illinois or North Carolina, Amazon has pulled their affiliate program out of those states because those states wanted to charge Amazon sales tax on sales that were referred by affiliates even though the person buying and selling the goods were not located in that state. In other words, if you live in Colorado and someone in New York sees your blog and buys something from Amazon that is shipped from Washington State to New York, then the state of Colorado wants the sales tax even though Amazon also paid it to New York. Makes sense, right? As you will see, some product categories at Buy.com pay higher commissions than Amazon. And Wal-Mart, although they pay less, does have thousands of products that Amazon does not have and often has other products that are cheaper. Lets take a look at the two programs. Buy.com Buy.com is mostly known for electronics but they actually have thousands of products in over 20 categories. Click here to learn more about the Buy.com Affiliate Program First of all lets take a look at the Buy.com commission payout schedule: 3% - Base Commission Rate 5% - For Office Supplies 6% - For Video Games, Bags, Books, Home & Outdoor, Baby & Toy, Music, Wine 8% - For Sports, Musical Instruments, Clothing & Shoes, Jewelry, Movies, Pet Supplies 9% - For Health & Beauty 11% - For Everything Else As you can see, although their base rate and Office supply rate are lower than Amazon and their rate for Video Games, Bags, Books, Home & Outdoor, Baby & Toy, Music, Wine is about the same, their rates for health & beauty and everything else is higher. Another interesting thing about Buy.com is that they sell wine. In fact they have some fabulous deals on wine. I was looking on the site recently and found one of my favorites, a Louis Martini Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 for $22.99. that wine sells for over $30 at my local wine store. Buy.com has a full suite of tools to help affiliates succeed: Link Builder- link to any product using our easy to use link builder tool RSS feeds - for Today's Deals, Featured Products, and Top Sellers across all categories Product Catalogs - updated everyday High converting text links and banners New Suite of Apps & Widgets using Bento Box Buy.com also does frequent promotions.
