Dress Code

From the TTSD Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook

Students have the RIGHT:

To dress and groom according to their choice consistent with the goals and purposes of the educational environment. They are entitled to a high-quality educational experience, devoid of discrimination or harassment based on perceived race, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or national origin. Furthermore, students have the right to express themselves in a manner that respects the rights of other individuals or groups. Additionally, they should attend school in an atmosphere free of bias based on various factors including race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, housing status, familial status, immigration status, disability status, linguistic difference, religion, culture, or any protected class status. Students have the right to dress and groom according to their choice, aligning with the goals and purposes of the educational environment.

Students have the RESPONSIBILITY: 

Students have the responsibility to dress and groom in a manner that does not disrupt the teaching/learning process. It is their duty to ensure that articles of clothing do not emphasize or advertise alcohol, drugs, nicotine, vaping, or profanity, and any items associated with gang membership or affiliation are prohibited. Moreover, students should wear clothing that adequately covers private areas and undergarments, avoiding clothing displaying intimidating, violent, derogatory, discriminatory, or sexually suggestive words or pictures. It is required for students to wear clothing including both a shirt and pants/skirt, or the equivalent (such as a dress, leggings, or shorts), along with footwear. In the event that a staff member believes a student to be in violation of these expectations, they may be asked to change or modify their attire accordingly
