GUIDELINES FOR APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR:

1. Respect for Physical Boundaries: Physical contact such as tickling, wrestling, piggyback rides, and other inappropriate touching is strictly prohibited. Inappropriate physical displays of affection, including kissing, frontal hugs, sitting on laps, and laying or sleeping next to another person are not allowed. Youth should not be isolated or alone with one other person.
2. Sexualized Behavior and Harassment Prohibited: Any behavior of a sexualized nature, or behavior that gives the appearance of being inappropriate (whether intentional or not), is strictly prohibited . This includes sexual harassment, inappropriate touching, and any actions that could make others uncomfortable. Engaging in sexual intimacy, engaging in lewd or lascivious behavior, or possessing lewd or lascivious material (i.e., pornography) during diocesan and parish activities is prohibited and will result in appropriate disciplinary action. Any illegal activity will be reported to the appropriate authorities.
3. Dress Code: Youth are expected to wear modest clothing that reflects respect for themselves and others. Clothing that is sexually suggestive, degrading, or inappropriate in any way is not permitted. T-shirts or other items with inappropriate content, such as vulgar, evil, offensive, or illegal messages, are prohibited. Clothing should not reveal midriffs, low-cut tops, spaghetti straps, or see-through materials. Pants should not sag to show underwear, and shorts should meet the standards of a Catholic school dress code.
