Dress Code

The Texas Association of Student Councils (TASC) requires students and adults participating in a TASC event to dress appropriately for that activity. Unless otherwise stated, event dress is casual and projects a positive image at all times. Our dress code is set at a higher standard than school dress codes because we represent our ssociation. Those attending TASC events must adhere to the following regulations:

TASC Dress Code

All garments should meet the following standards:

Be opaque (not see-through);
Have sleeves (Garments with no sleeves may have a cover-up added up to bring the garment into dress code.)
Have a front and back;
Fit at or cover the waistline;
Not show cleavage or chest;
Be no shorter than mid-thigh;
Have no rips or holes above mid-thigh through which skin shows; and
Not display or refer directly or indirectly to alcohol or alcoholic products, drugs or drug paraphernalia, tobacco or tobacco products, profanity, race, politics, violence, offensive language, gender, or sexuality;
Shorts

Are NOT permitted at TASC events held during the school year, but
Are permitted at summer programs and must be no shorter than mid-thigh.

Head coverings, except for medical or religious purposes, are not to be worn when inside a building.

(Adopted August 2021)

Virtual Summer Workshop Policies

CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE

The use or possession of alcohol, tobacco, electronic vaporizers, or other illegal drugs is strictly prohibited. Any student found in the possession or under the influence of these substances will be dismissed from the workshop without delay at the expense of the student, their parents, or the student’s school. In addition, school officials/law enforcement will be contacted.

ILLNESS

Illnesses should be reported to the Director immediately. Although we are online, it is important that students are logged in when needed and we need to be aware of any illness to know for attendance purposes.

WORKSHOP SAFETY

Delegates are expected to respect the rights and safety of others. Weapons of any type are strictly prohibited at TASC functions. Any person found in the possession of an item used as a weapon or exhibiting irresponsible behavior that endangers the health, safety, or welfare of him/herself or others will be removed from the workshop without delay at the expense of the student, his/her parents or the student’s school.

Zoom Etiquette and Norms

Please be aware you are choosing to participate in a virtual conference and will appear on screen in small group activities. This is an interactive event - virtually!

Ensure that your name is posted correctly. (preferred name)

Mute yourself when asked in order for everyone to hear speakers.

It is important to “be in the moment” with your team and avoid distractions that might prevent you from doing this.

Be respectful. Think before you type or speak. Although we are interacting virtually, each person deserves to be treated with the same respect that would be given in person

Be on time. This will allow us to start together and make our time as a group as productive as possible. (Times are listed in Central Daylight Time.)

Dress appropriately and be mindful of the view in your computer room, of what you wear, and of the surroundings which are made public.

Keep your video on. We need to see faces in order to communicate effectively.

Online Check-In

You will check-in online using the information from the Summer Workshop Website which will be sent before the workshop to all participants. Daily attendance will be taken and sent to Advisor's.
