    STUDENT DRESS GUIDELINES : Approved by the Board of Education on June 6, 2023

    Students can choose clothing that makes them feel comfortable and safe, as long as it complies with the following guidelines:

    • Clothing must cover all appropriate areas at all times.  Appropriate areas include stomach, chest, butt, back, and upper thigh areas.  Pants need to be secured at the waist or hip level. Ripped jeans on the upper thighs must have leggings underneath.
    • Shirts must have sleeves. Sleeves are defined as material past the shoulder seam of a shirt. Underclothes/undergarments worn in an exposed manner are unacceptable (Includes, but not limited to bras, underwear, and boxers.) 
    • Pajama wear, including tops, pants and slippers, are not acceptable attire to wear at school unless a day is set aside by the school for Pajama Day, ex. during Spirit Week. 
    • Attire or accessories that directly, by innuendo, or look-alike promote alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, profanity, violence, gangs, and weapons may not be worn at school.
    • Students cannot wear anything that includes hate speech, images, or language that creates a hostile or intimidating environment for others, including any protected class or marginalized group.  Hate speech includes any form of expression through which speakers vilify, humiliate, or incite hatred against a group or a class of persons on the basis of race, religion, skin color, sexual identity, gender identity, ethnicity, disability, immigrant status, or national origin (adapted from the American Library Association).

    Head coverings are not to be worn in the building.  Exceptions may be made for religious or medical reasons.

    Outerwear (coats, blankets, etc.) are not permitted to be worn during the school day.
