STUDENT LIFE
BE A TROJAN!
DRESS CODE
ACHS students are required to follow Aurora Public Schools established guidelines which state that “student dress that is disruptive to the classroom environment or to the maintenance of a safe and orderly school” will not be allowed.
ACHS students will be able to express themselves through dress and appearance, however the following rules will be strictly enforced:
Clothing must cover chest, buttocks, and undergarments (spaghetti strap tank tops are not allowed).
No shirts with gang, drug, alcohol or inappropriate advertisements, logos or pictures
Bandanas as apparel and/or accessories may not be worn or displayed at any time.
Shoes must be worn at all times in the school.
Clothing accessories, paraphernalia or body adornments may not:
Be profane, obscene, lewd, suggestive, libelous, or vulgar
Denote gang involvement
Promote the use of drugs, tobacco, alcohol or weapons
Intimidate or threaten any individual or group
Disrupt the learning environment
Promote any activity prohibited by the student code of conduct or that are not appropriate for their age.
ACHS staff reserve the right to determine if any clothing is inappropriate and to ask the student to call home for a change of clothing or loan the student an appropriate attire to comply with dress code. If a student consistently wears inappropriate clothing other disciplinary consequences will be enforced.
STUDENT IDENTIFICATION CARDS
In the interest of safety and security, all students are required to wear their student ID’s at all times while on the school campus and on school buses. Students will receive their ID’s within the first quarter of school. Also students should wear their ID’s while visiting other APS schools. Failure to comply with this requirement could result in disciplinary action and/or removed from district property. Replacements costs for lost ID’s will be $5.00.
Parents, please ensure that your child meets student dress and ID requirements each day before sending them to school. Thank you for your help.
