- It is expected that both the student and their parents carefully monitor hair length and hairstyle to remain in compliance with the dress code. Neither teachers nor administrators should have to repeatedly remind a student to keep their hair cut, styled, or colored properly. Frequent haircuts are encouraged so the student will meet the dress code at all times. Students and their parents are responsible for adhering to all uniform and dress down guidelines. Parents will be notified when uniform code violations become excessive. The teachers and administration ask for parent partnership and student compliance regarding uniforms and dress down requirements. Interruption of educational instruction due to uniform issues is detrimental to the learning environment and academic process.
- Special events, birthday dress down, and community service fundraising days ($ Dress Days) are days when students may be out of the official uniform.
Dress Down Guidelines (including, but not limited to, the following):
- Skirts and shorts must be no more than four inches above the knee.
- Shirts must cover a student's stomach/midriff when raising arms.
- Tank tops, spaghetti straps, sleeveless shirts, see-through garments, and tight, form-fitting clothing are not permitted.
- Jeans, capris, and slacks are acceptable.
- Shoes must cover toes and heels and have a slip-free, flat base – tennis shoes are always the best option for safety during PE classes and recess time.
- Sandals, flip-flops, crocs, clogs, or shoes with heels are not permitted.
- T-shirts and all other clothing must not display or contain suggestive slang, images of alcohol/drugs, cryptic/violent images, politically distracting messages, or inappropriate language, pictures, or offensive phrases.
- Clothing may not be torn, frayed, cut, or have holes or mesh/see-through.
- Hats are not permitted.
- All other uniform guidelines regarding jewelry/make-up and nail polish always apply.
The school administration will make the final decision regarding the appropriateness of any fad or questionable article of clothing, accessory, or hairstyle. All students are expected to comply with the dress code. Students who do not meet the dress code will be asked to change into appropriate clothing and will not be allowed to attend class until parents provide appropriate clothing. For compelling reasons, the administration may, at their discretion, review an individual situation.
