Dress Code Compliance 

At ECMS, our dress code helps maintain a focused, respectful, and inclusive learning environment. It reduces peer pressure about clothing, promotes equality, and builds a sense of community. Consistent expectations also reduce distractions and disciplinary issues. Following the dress code helps students prepare for professional settings where similar guidelines apply. Our goal is to create a school environment that builds pride, supports academic focus, and ensures all students feel part of our community.

In the event that a student is out of dress code the following will take place.

• • The infraction will be logged in DeansList.

  • Parents will be contacted to bring clothing that meets school guidelines.

    • • If a parent cannot bring clothing, the Dean’s Office may provide a loaner shirt, pants, or sweater. Loaners are a last resort and should not be relied on.

      • Students must leave their phone or another item of value in the Dean’s Office as a reminder to return the loaner at the end of the day.

  • After three documented dress code infractions, a parent meeting is required before the student returns to class.

  • Students with three infractions will also complete three hours of community service.

  • If the Dean’s Office cannot provide clothing and the outfit is revealing or highly inappropriate, the student will wait in the office until a family member brings compliant clothing.

Hoodies, hats, beanies in class.

• • Students must remove hoodies, hats, and beanies before entering any building.

  • Students who forget will be reminded to remove the item.

  • Students who refuse will have the incident logged in DeansList and families will be contacted.

  • After three refusals, the student may no longer bring the item to school. If it was a hoodie, the student will be allowed to bring only crewneck sweaters or jackets without hoods.
