Are there any guidelines on this?

00I was looking at a school's Event Calendar and it had these words next to the various dates of a month. Are there any rules or guidelines as to how the words or phrases to be written?02br

0 Those titles all look fine to me. Titles are rather like headlines, they cut the information down to the bare bones. So, while you could say '23 - date for conferences between parents and teachers', you don't.

00As it looks to me, not only did they cut to the bare bones but took away some parts of the bones too. It feels like they made up some new lingoes. For example, is it acceptable to (I think it is since many are doing it) deliberately (as it seems to me) avoid making apostrophes when you are writing title-like words/phrases?02br
