School IDs are required daily, so make it part of your routine. Here is everything you need to know to stay clear of the detention list:
Forgot it? Head straight to the ID table in the cafeteria before class in the morning to receive a temporary ID.
Avoid Detention: Pay $1.00 fine and you're good to go.
Wear It Right: Your ID must be visible on your upper body at all times. Keeping it in your backpack, purse, or pocket counts as being out of uniform!
Keep It Clean: No scratching out or altering your photo.
IDs help keep our entire campus safe and secure. Wear it on daily, grab your temporary pass if needed, and have a great day! 🎟️✨
