OUTDOOR REGULATIONS<br />
Because of potential damage to the lawns, windows and a variety of other objects, games should<br />
be confined to the athletic fields behind the school. Given its proximity to classrooms and offices,<br />
students may not play or create noise in the area surrounding the Pond, in Centennial courtyard or<br />
in the Vogelstein/CPT quadrangle.<br />
<strong>Student</strong>s are not allowed to swim in Potter’s Pond or in the various ponds on the golf course or<br />
in the Watertown area.<br />
<strong>Student</strong>s should never trespass on town or private property. When walking downtown, students<br />
should remain on the roads. Taking shortcuts through lawns and wooded areas creates problems for<br />
the owners of those properties.<br />
MORNING MEETINGS AND ASSEMBLIES<br />
Morning Meeting is held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Books and newspapers should be left<br />
in lockers or in the hallways before entering the auditorium. Food and drink are not permitted in<br />
Bingham. As programs for Morning Meetings are normally of a serious nature, students are expected<br />
to enter Bingham quietly and take their assigned seats. <strong>Student</strong>s should not stand in the aisles or<br />
in the front and rear of the auditorium before Morning Meetings begin. When the speaker for the<br />
day takes his or her seat on the stage, students should stop talking immediately. At the conclusion<br />
of Morning Meetings, students should quietly exit in an orderly fashion after allowing the Senior<br />
Class to leave first.<br />
Assemblies are held each Wednesday and on either Friday or Saturday mornings. <strong>The</strong>se gatherings<br />
are used for announcements or skits by monitors, faculty, members of athletic teams and the<br />
heads of clubs and organizations. Although Assemblies are not as formal as Morning Meetings, it is<br />
essential that students enter and leave in an orderly fashion and show proper respect for those making<br />
announcements. Seniors will leave the auditorium first.<br />
<strong>Student</strong>s have assigned seats at Morning Meetings and Assemblies. <strong>Student</strong>s not in their assigned<br />
seats will be given cuts.<br />
