Dances are usually held on campus and are always well chaperoned and held only with administrative approval. School and district guidelines will be enforced at all dances. Ironwood High School Dances are school sponsored events. Students are expected to abide by all Ironwood rules and regulations at all times.

In order to purchase tickets students must have:

• A clearance ticket from the Bookstore if debts are over $50.
• Signed Code of Conduct
• A valid High School ID
• An administration approved Guest Pass (if bringing a non-Ironwood student)

Tickets are sold on campus at lunch. Tables will be set up on campus in the area between the Library and the Eagle’s Nest. Dance tickets are not sold through the bookstore.  Tickets are sold by the student class or club responsible for hosting the dance.  As these are student run fundraisers we cannot take credit cards.  Cash or checks (made out to Ironwood High School) are accepted.
