5. Dress Code Motion

• • Motion was vetoed because there was no requirement to wear a shirt/top

  • “I move to add ‘shirt’ under the first bullet point where it says ‘students must wear…’”

Motion Passes

• • “I move to add ‘pants/sweatpants/shorts/skirt/dress/leggings, etc.’ under the same section in the first bullet point where it says ‘students must wear…’”

Motion Passes

• • Shirt is the same as a top

  • “I move to amend the amendment to say ‘top’ instead of ‘shirt’”

  • Top and shirt are the same, but this clarifies things about whether a dress is a shirt; this way it can be considered a top and a bottom.

Motion Passes

• • “I move to add top and bottom to be subpoints that says ‘Students Must Wear:’”

Motion Passes

Motions as a whole

Motion Passes

6. X-Period Standardization Motion

• • The language needs to be cleaned up

    • Have a vague idea of what x-periods are, but each teacher has a different way of providing x-periods

      • Teachers have a lot of questions

  • We should move it to a committee

“I move to refer this motion to the admin committee”

• • One committee working on it will be better than having the whole council discussing this

Motion Passes

7. Assistant Secretary Motion

“I move to amend the motion’s first point under secretary’s responsibilities to read ‘takes minutes of each Council meeting’ and delete everything past that”

“I move to amend the amendment to read ‘posts minutes of each Council meeting on the council bulletin board and on the council website’”
