Dress Code

  • Our school does not require a uniform, however, students must abide by this dress code:

    General Requirements

    • Students may be required to wear certain types of clothing, usually for safety reasons, while participating in classes such as physical education, trade classes, chemistry, etc., or in curricular and extracurricular classes or activities such as band, choir, dance, drama, and theater.
    • Students are responsible for keeping themselves and their clothes neat and clean.
    • Students may wear their hair in any style they choose.
    • Head coverings (including hoods and bandanas) may not be worn in the school building. However, students may wear head coverings in the school building as an expression of sincerely held religious beliefs (e.g., hijab, yarmulke, etc.), cultural expression (e.g., a Gele), or to reasonably accommodate medical or disability-related issues (e.g., protective helmets).
    • Students may wear PPE (masks, gloves) to guard against health-related risks.

    Students May Not Wear

    • Styles of clothes that endanger themselves or other students.
    • Bedtime attire such as pajamas, undershirts, or undergarments as outerwear.
    • Clothing or tattoos that display statements or pictures related to the use of drugs, alcohol, tobacco products, or sex, or that promote hate and/or violence, or signify gang affiliations.
    • Attire that may be considered weapons, including, but not limited to, chain belts or wallet chains.
    • Jewelry or similar artifacts that are obscene or may cause disruptions to the educational environment.
    • Hair rollers or hair curlers.
    • Flip-flops, house slippers, steel-toe shoes or boots, or any other type of footwear that could constitute a safety hazard.
