Appropriate and acceptable dress creates an atmosphere conducive to learning. Parents are requested to use judgment in determining appropriate clothing for school and the weather. A general rule to follow is that clothes be neat and not extreme. Students should dress to assure they are healthy and comfortable for the school day. The school principal will make the decision regarding the appropriateness of a student’s appearance should there be a question.
As a rule, the following guidelines should be adhered to:
Shirts that display the midriff and fishnet shirts are not permitted
Clothing with inappropriate words or graphics, especially relating to drugs, alcohol, and tobacco are not permitted
Clothing that interferes with instruction or is disruptive to the class is not permitted; this may include hoods, hats or other recreational headcoverings that may interfere with learning for oneself or others. *Headcoverings for medical or religious reasons are permitted.
