Student Dress Code

Students shall come to school clean and neat, wearing clothing and exhibiting grooming that will not be a health and/or safety hazard to the student or others. Campus administrators have the final authority to determine if student dress is inappropriate, unsafe, or may be a disruption to the learning environment. If the principal determines that a student’s grooming or clothing violates the school’s dress code, the student will be given an opportunity to correct the problem at school. If not corrected, the student may be assigned consequences until the problem is corrected, or until a parent or designee brings an acceptable change of clothing to the school.

Jewelry and clothing may not create a distraction to the learning environment, prohibit participation in learning, or create a safety concern.

Caps, hats, hoods on hoodies, sweatbands, bandanas, hair rollers, and other items for grooming or head covering may not be worn in the school building. Exceptions may be made by campus administration for designated spirit days.

Clothing that portrays or represents items or behavior prohibited in school may not be worn by students. This includes, but is not limited to drugs, alcohol, profanity or obscenity, tobacco, suggestive wording, violence or gangs.

Shorts, skirts and dresses must be fingertip length. Leggings/yoga pants/spandex shorts may be worn with a shirt, dress or skirt that is fingertip length or worn underneath a dress, skirt, or shorts. All clothing should be appropriately fitted.

Clothing deemed inappropriate, offensive, or unsafe by campus administration for school in general may not be worn by students. This includes but is not limited to trench coats, see-through clothing, and shirts that bare the midriff, back, or torso or shirts that expose undergarments or completely bare the shoulder.

Undergarments must not be visible.

Students are required to wear shoes appropriate for the school setting. Flip flops may not be worn by elementary students for safety reasons.
