💡 Policy Reminders
Dress Code
Sultan Middle School’s basic principle for school dress code is that clothing must be worn in a way such that genitals, buttocks, abdomen, breasts, and chests (including nipples) are fully covered with opaque fabric. All items below listed in the “must wear” and “may wear” categories below must meet this principle.
At Sultan Middle School all students and staff must wear at all times:
• Top (shirt, tank, blouse, etc.)
• Bottoms (pants, sweatpants, shorts, skirt, dress, leggings, etc.)
• Shoes (more specific athletic style shoes will be necessary for PE)
At Sultan Middle School all students and staff may wear:
• Hats (must allow for face to be visible to the staff)
• Religious headwear
• Hoodie sweatshirts (wearing hood is allowed, but face and ears must be visible to staff)
• Fitted pants, including opaque leggings, yoga pants, and skinny jeans
• Ripped jeans as long as underwear and buttocks are not exposed.
• Tank tops, (including spaghetti straps, and halter tops)
• Athletic Attire
• Visible waistbands or visible straps on undergarments worn under other clothing
Students wearing inappropriate clothing will be expected to change, borrow clothing from the office, or be sent home. Repeated violation of the dress code will result in disciplinary action.
Toys, Balloons, and Gifts
Toys do not belong at school. Students are to leave stuffed toys, fidget spinners, and other toys at home. Exceptions will be made for fidget spinners or other devices as specified in a student’s IEP or 504 plan. Balloons of any type are not allowed at school as they are a distraction in the classroom and may contain substances that are a health hazard. The school is not responsible for the loss or theft of these items. Gifts that pose a distraction when brought to be delivered to students at school may not be delivered to students until the end of the school day.
