Dress Code

Dress Code

The Board of Education recognizes that each pupil’s mode of dress and grooming is a manifestation of the pupil’s individual style and individual preferences. The Board will impose its judgment on pupils and parent(s) or legal guardian(s) only when a pupil’s dress and grooming affect the education program of the schools.

All students, grades K-8, are required to dress in a manner that reflects good taste, modesty, and
appropriateness. Choice of garments should be made according to the health, safety and welfare of all students. The School Dress Code is designed to establish guidelines that assist students in making responsible decisions as they select attire that is appropriate for school.

Students are expected to follow the dress code guidelines below. Students who are in violation of the dress code will be asked to change or required to make arrangements to have more suitable clothing brought from home before they will be permitted to return to the school day. Continued defiance of the dress code will result in disciplinary action. Any attire which results in undue attention of the student or disrupts the educational process is in violation of the dress code.
