ALLOWANCES
During
school - allowances shall be
$.25 per week through 2nd grade
$1.00 per week 3rd through 6th grades
$5.00 per week in junior high
$10.00 per week in high school
This is
not to be spent on candy. It is to provide for most of your needs:
Cosmetics, personal grooming, movie tickets (YOU should buy your own
ticket when you go out with your aunt, uncle, or friend), school
supplies during the year, stamps, Christmas money, some clothing,
entertainment.
If you
need more money than this, you are expected to earn it.
If family
finances get tight, allowances will be lowered as necessary.
BEDTIMES:
School nights:
You must get enough sleep to be able to get up in the morning. In
grade school you need 10-11 hours of sleep. An adult needs 8 hours.
Bedtimes are determined by the time you need to get up in the
morning.
Students are to stay up no later than:
9 PM - grade school
10 PM - junior high
11 PM - high school
If you can't
get up in time for school:
First time -
bedtime is moved up 1/2 hour only the next school night.
After that -
to be determined
Other nights:
You must get enough sleep to be able to get up by 9 AM or earlier if
something is planned.
As a guideline, you can stay up 1 hour later. Two hours if there is a
special reason. (TV doesn't qualify. Tape the program.)
If you can't get up in the morning, discipline will be determined by
the parents.
Parents can give special permission to stay up later.
BEDTIMES WHEN FRIENDS ARE OVER:
You and your friends may stay up late as above (see other
nights), however, others in the family will still want to go to sleep at
their regular bedtimes. You will have to be VERY quiet unless you have
made special arrangements with the family.
ADDITIONAL RULES: (Add your own)
Comments: The
allowances were set in the late 80's.
