Dress Code
During the school day or at school sponsored activities students must dress in a way that promotes a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment. This means that:
-
Tops must cover the chest and back from arm-pit to arm-pit, and cover the torso
-
Pants, shorts, dresses, and/or skirts must cover buttocks and not hang low enough to reveal underwear.
-
No images or messages with overt, explicit profanity, sexual references, or reference to tobacco, drugs and alcohol.
-
No overtly threatening/targeted weapons references or images.
-
No showcasing gang affiliation.
-
No images, symbols or messaging that are threatening, hateful or derogatory towards individuals or groups.
-
To avoid injury and disease, shoes, boots, sandals, or other footwear must be worn (no socks or bare feet).
Accountability Measures
If a student is not meeting the dress code expectations, students will be addressed privately and provided options for meeting the expectations (eg: a change of clothes, call a guardian to bring some from home, turn a garment inside out, reminder to not wear that again.)
The dress code may change periodically in order to address:
- New fads and styles.
- Other issues that represent a distraction (or potential to distraction) to the educational process
- Other issues that represent a safety (or the potential to be a safety) concern.
- Additional dress code expectations may be required for specific classes due to safety (i.e. science, woodshop, etc.).
