Dress Code

The district establishes dress and grooming guidelines so that instruction and activities are not disrupted.

We expect the dress of all students to meet community standards and school policies with regard to safety, health, cleanliness and appearance.

Some basics to remember include:

  • Shoes must be worn at all times.
  • All apparel must fit properly and must be worn in the appropriate manner intended.
  • Shorts can be worn provided they are not cut-off, athletic shorts, boxer shorts and/or are made of spandex. Shorts or skirts should be no shorter than four inches from the top of the knee or shorts should be no longer than the knee.  Shorts must be hemmed and frays must be stitched.
  • Clothing items with provocative, offensive, violent, or drug-related pictures or slogans as well as those advertising alcoholic beverages or tobacco products should not be worn to school.

Please note that all building administrative decisions regarding student dress are final.  Students who disregard the dress code will be subject to disciplinary interventions.

The district’s complete dress code is outlined in the annual Student Handbook and the Code of Student Conduct.  The Code of Student Conduct is distributed at the beginning of the school year.  After receiving parental input and School Board approval, students at a number of campuses wear school uniforms and/or standardized dress.
