Students will not be denied attendance at school or be otherwise penalized for failing to wear clothing that complies with the school uniform or dress code if such failure is due to financial hardship. The student or their parent/guardian should notify a trusted school admin if obtaining the required uniform presents a financial burden.
Schools have procedures and criteria to offer assistance to families who are having difficulty complying with this policy. Please contact your student's school for questions about these programs.
This policy does not apply to students using distance learning, sites where the district provides educational services to students pursuant to a contract for extended educational services, or any other sites where district personnel are not in control of the operation of the facility.
Students new to Oklahoma City Public Schools and who enroll mid-session will be granted a grace period of up to 20 school days before being required to comply with the required uniform.
District staff will enforce the dress code consistently and in a manner that does not reinforce or increase marginalization or oppression of any group on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, genetic information, alienage, veteran, parental, family and marital status or any other basis prohibited by law that adversely affects the student.
Students who violate this policy may be subject to discipline in accordance with the district’s Student Code of Conduct.
Principals, along with sponsors, coaches, or other persons in charge of extracurricular activities, may regulate the dress and personal hygiene of student participants if the principal reasonably believes that the student’s dress or personal hygiene creates a hazard, or may prevent, interfere with, or adversely affect the purpose, direction, or effort required for the activity. Exceptions to the student uniform may be made to meet the needs of specific classes such as extracurricular activities. Additionally, principals may designate days when the student uniform does not apply.
