Students are expected to be clean and neat in their personal grooming, observing standards of modesty, moderation and good taste.

Boys:

Hair style should be neat and trim and may not be below the shirt collar. Razor cuts, hair designs, tails or dyeing are not permitted. Shirts are to be tucked in and uniform pants are to be the correct size and worn properly. Facial hair is not allowed.

Girls:

Jewelry and accessories should be modest. For safety reasons, hoop and dangling earrings may not be worn. Make-up, colored lip gloss and colored nail polish/acrylic nails are not permitted. Hair styling should be modest, age appropriate and without dye/highlights.

Hair accessories or headbands purchased from Simply Uniforms or athletic headbands can be worn to keep hair back. Fashionable (example: big bow, glitter, animal ears, animals/characters) hair accessories/headbands are not allowed.

The administration, faculty and staff reserve the right to make individual determination affecting dress code policy.
