Dress Code

  • The student dress code is designed to reduce the likelihood of distraction and to maintain an academic focus in the classroom and on campus. Our staff requests a partnership with parents to observe the following guidelines when purchasing school attire:  

    • The wearing of or absence of any item of clothing that will distract from the learning process of other students or clothing with offensive words and/or the advertising of drugs or alcoholic beverages will not be tolerated.  Gang attire is prohibited. 

    • Caps/hats and/or hoods on coats or sweatshirts are not to be worn in the building.  

    • Skirts, shorts/skorts should be at least fingertip length  

    • Tops should be long enough to cover the midriff when arms are raised to shoulder level.  Tops should not be low cut and an undershirt should be worn when necessary.

    • Flannel PJ pants are not appropriate for school unless it is a themed PJ day.

    • Undergarments should not be visible. 

    • See-through clothing (such as a mesh jersey) must have an undershirt.  

    • Shoes that have skates in the sole should not be worn to school.  

    • Athletic shoes should be worn on the days the students have PE for safety. 

    • Staff will discuss with the student/parents should a clothing item or accessory be distracting to the learning environment that is not specifically listed here.
